The cognitive functions of chronic human cannabis users was compared with non-user controls. The user group comprised 30 chronic cannabis users. Non-users [50] were selected from the general population of the village to which the users belonged. Subjects were assessed by means of objective tests for their memory, attention, concentration and perceptomotor functions. The tests did not reveal any significant difference between the 2 groups.
