We assessed intention to quit cannabis using MTM constructs of initiation (participatory dialogue, behavioral confidence, changes in physical environment) and sustenance (emotional transformation, practice for change, changes in social environment). The structure of the MTM scale was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis. Hierarchical linear regression models were used to assess constructs of initiation and sustenance of cannabis use controlling for demographic characteristics and Cannabis Use Disorder Identification Test score (&lt;12 and &gt;12).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The MTM scale evidenced good reliability (Cronbach\u2019s alphas\u2009&gt;\u2009.7) and good model fit.
