Lifetime cannabis use and cognition in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and their unaffected siblings

The relationship between cannabis and cognitive performance is controversial. While both acute administration and long-term cannabis use impair cognitive performance in healthy subjects, several studies have shown improved cognitive outcomes in patients with memory performance. In the control group,...
