Qualitative analyses of data on patterns of marijuana involvement in adulthood were conducted. Marijuana use is a leisure-time activity users engage in with close peers or alone. Adult users limit their consumption of marijuana to free time, and keep their marijuana use from interfering with other responsibilities. These adult users are controlled marijuana users; they view their involvement with marijuana as a personal, private, recreational activity.
