The outcome measures listed are examples. This is not an exhaustive list of tests included in the meta-analysis. Although largely believed to test executive functioning, recent evidence suggests the Iowa Gambling Task loads higher on attention and therefore was included within that domain (Gansler, Jerram, Vannorsdall, & Schretlen, 2011). 5 RESIDUAL COGNITIVE EFFECTS OF CANNABIS USE

Cannabis use and neurocognitive functioning in a non-clinical sample of users.
OBJECTIVE With the recent debates over marijuana legalization and increases in use, it is critical to examine its role in cognition. While many studies generally support the adverse acute effects of cannabis on neurocognition, the non-acute effects remain less clear. The current study used a cross-sectional design to examine relationships between recent and past cannabis use on neurocognitive f...
متن کاملNon-acute (residual) neurocognitive effects of cannabis use: a meta-analytic study.
The possible medicinal use of cannabinoids for chronic diseases emphasizes the need to understand the long-term effects of these compounds on the central nervous system. We provide a quantitative synthesis of empirical research pertaining to the non-acute (residual) effects of cannabis on the neurocognitive performance of adult human subjects. Out of 1,014 studies retrieved using a thorough sea...
متن کاملCognitive deficits and cognitive normality in recreational cannabis and Ecstasy/MDMA users.
A crucial topic for recreational drug research is the long-term effects of regular usage. With respect to cannabis, Solowij et al. (2002) noted: ‘One issue remains unresolved: does heavy, frequent or prolonged use of cannabis lead to a deterioration in cognitive function that persists well beyond any period of acute intoxication? Is the functioning of the brain altered in the long-term?’. Many ...
متن کاملPreliminary evidence for a sex-specific relationship between amount of cannabis use and neurocognitive performance in young adult cannabis users.
Accumulating evidence suggests neuropsychological deficits from cannabis use, with a burgeoning area of preclinical research indicating possible sex-differences. However, few studies have examined how cannabis use may differentially impact neurocognition in male and female cannabis users. As such, we examined potential sex-differences in associations between amount of cannabis use (across sever...
متن کاملCannabis use before age 15 and subsequent executive functioning.
BACKGROUND Many studies have suggested that adolescence is a period of particular vulnerability to neurocognitive effects associated with substance misuse. However, few large studies have measured differences in cognitive performance between chronic cannabis users who started in early adolescence (before age 15) with those who started later. AIMS To examine the executive functioning of indivi...
