- Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Cannabinoids (2003, background): “[173,174] It is controversial whether heavy regular consumption may impair cognition,[180,181] but this impairment seems to be minimal if it exists.[182,183] Long-term medical use of cannabis has been reported to be well tolerated without significant physical or cognitive impairment.”
- Persistent cannabis users show neuropsychological decline from childhood to midlife (2012, background): “Studies of long-term, heavy cannabis users fairly consistently show that these individuals perform worse on neuropsychological tests (2⇓⇓–5), and some (6⇓–8) but not all (9) studies suggest that impairment may remain even after extended periods of abstinence.”
- Executive Dysfunction in Cocaine Addiction: Evidence for Discordant Frontal, Cingulate, and Cerebellar Activity (2004, background): “…users are short-lived (peaking at 2 hr after consumption and lasting up to 8 hr) and are not present after 24 hr (Fant et al., 1998; Curran et al., 2002), and " light " (once per week) use of cannabis has not been associated with decrements in cognitive test performance (Pope et al., 2001).”
- Neuropsychology and neuropharmacology of P3a and P3b. (2006, background): “The long-term neuropsychological effects of marijuana use are debated (Pope et al., 2001; Solowij et al., 2002).”

(2010, background): “…for considerable concern given a range of adverse potential effects from cannabis use, including impaired cognitive functioning (Bolla et al., 2002; Pope et al., 2001), reduced educational attainment (Fergusson et al., 2000), road accidents (Fergusson et al., 2008; Ramaekers et al., 2004), poor…”
