What meaningful gap have you identified that your study will address?Explain.

The prevalence of marijuana use has rapidly increased from early to late adolescence, and peaks in young adulthood. The initiation of substance uses early, during adolescence, contributes to higher levels of usage and addiction later in life; associated with negative social, health, and behavioral outcomes, such as mental health problems or violent and aggressive behaviors. From a population and epidemiological perspective, the major causes and marijuana usage behaviors are consistent and predictable, however, the current interventions are not effective in deterring use .

Now that you have read and summarized some of the recent literature to understand your problem, and given what other researchers are exploring, what meaningful gap have you identified that your study will address?
