Im constantly hearing conflicting claims about studies done on Marijuana.."Studies have shown marijuana is addictive." "Studies have shown marijuana is not addictive." "Studies have shown marijuana causes lung cancer." Ect..ect.
So what I would like is for everyone to post all of the studies they can find dealing with marijuana,Espically addiction.
Just post whatever you have or can find. I want to see as many studies dealing with marijuana as I can get.
Web links would espically be favored.Along with the conclusions below the web link if you can.
Thanks

Sorry, no links, just an observation. You will continue to find conflicting results. Thats how humans are, in highly controversial issues, everyone will talk from a certain point of view, every one will be biased. What you plan to do is the right thing, get as many points of view and studies as possible, to finally get whats behind them.

Well I think I can draw a logical conclusion with dozens of studies at my disposal. It's better than sites saying two different things.

5610 hits on google scholar (http://www.scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=cannabis+dependence&btnG=Search)... I hope that's enough ;)

Getting back to the title of this thread: most of Carl Sagan's best work (and some of his worst) was done on marijuana.

Slightly related: Medicinal Marijuana: Does it actually have medicinal benefits? Whenever the media picks up on the issue, they never answer that question for me. They just boo or applaud the legal aspects.
