I call bullshit. A scientific study based on IQ results is fundamentally flawed. The article and "study" is a classic case of subjective bias and scientific slight of hand. The article ends with,
"There are a lot of clinical and educational anecdotal reports that cannabis users tend to be less successful in their educational achievement, marriages and occupations. It is of course part of folklore among young people that some heavy users of cannabis seem to gradually lose their abilities and end up achieving much less than one would have anticipated. This study provides one explanation as to why this might be the case."
There are A LOT of "clinical and educational anecdotal reports" to state the complete opposite, so now what? This just ain't science.
- Cannabis has no toxins and has never been show to cause actual brain damage. It doesn't matter how old you are.uuuuuu
- A study showing actual brain damage would show something... this shows NOTHINGuuuuuu
- They basically just admitted its about a prejudice right at the end. It really depends on who you ask for these 'anecdotal reports'uuuuuu
- ...reports.'uuuuuu
- IQ tests simply are not scientific.uuuuuu
