Abstract

184 Book Reviews other drugs had been confined to ages 18 to 21 years, The author cannot prove that the results are not due and his IQ was 120. He was tested three times prior to a different cognitive strategy on the part of the to quitting with the same cognitive discrimination users and ex-users, but if use of cannabis really is the test used in the first 3 experiments. While there is only significant difference, then whatever the reason literature to support a practice effect with this test, for the different strategy, it would probably be related it stabilizes at trial three and beyond. He was also to use and it remains less efficient. She then goes on tested in an acutely intoxicated state, having used 1.5 to list more implications for future research, implica- g. of cannabis. He was then tested at 1, 3, and 6 weeks tions for users themselves, and implications for soci- of drug-screen monitored abstinence. He had a large ety. Her major findings, in summary, are: (1) There PN on ERP which normalized with acute intoxication is an effect on cognition for the worse associated with but did not resolve over the 6-week
