Hey, I wrote this down. Some sites, I know, say several weeks for affected memory
Here's the site: www.hnrc.ucsd.edu
Some references may be brief. Adult Language, Nudity, and Violence.
Tests may have been done in 2001, but it was published in 2003.
They included three groups: heavy Cannabis users (recently), past heavy users (but, not recently), and a group of controls (very limited exposure to Cannabis).
Eight neurocognitive ability areas were tested. Six indicated that the effect could not be distinguished from zero. Learning and forgetting were the other two. The numbers of the differences being .21 for learning and .27 for forgetting (I don't know how to read those numbers, but I know that .21 means 1/5 of 1).
"These results can be interpreted in several ways. A statistically reliable negative effect was observed in the domain of learning and forgetting, suggesting that chronic long-term cannabis use results in a selective memory defect. While the results are compatible with this conclustion, the effect size for both domains was of a very small magnitude. The 'real life' impact of such a small and selective effect is questionable."
They asked the groups to abstain from cannabis and took urine analyses for the next month. "They were tested on days zero, 1, 7, and 28. After 28 days, all the heavy-users had undetectable THC levels. They noted subtle impairments on several neurocognitive tests in the active-users, who had just become abstinent. However, by 28 days, the active-users who had abstained for almost a month were indistinguishable from former heavy-users or non-using controls."
I forgot the rest.
