Description
- Start by reading this article, which gives a simplified overview of the attached research article. https://www.forbes.com/sites/alicegwalton/2014/10/...
- Open the attached research article and read the sections titled, "Why are we concerned about recreational cannabis use," and "Adverse health effects of chronic cannabis use" (this is a very long section and you don't need to read the entire thing. SKIP: cannabis dependence, The psychosocial consequences of adolescent cannabis use, and Cannabis use and mental health). Take a look at Table 1 to see how strong the author feels the evidence is for various effects on health.
- Answer the following questions:
- Why is it challenging to accurately measure the effect of regular cannabis use on health?
- Overall, how does cannabis use affect users' cognitive ability and IQ? From Table 1, how strong is the evidence? Does the evidence prove causation or is it a correlation? Does the age the user starts or the length of time spent smoking marijuana make a difference in the longterm effects?
- What effect does marijuana have on the structure of the brain? From Table 1, how strong is the evidence? Does the evidence prove causation or is it a correlation?
- What effect does smoking marijuana have on the respiratory system? From Table 1, how strong is the evidence? Does the evidence prove causation or is it a correlation?
- Is there enough evidence in this article to draw the conclusion that there is a good possibility that marijuana can negatively impact certain aspects of health?
