Abstract
Among people with psychotic illness, there was no significant difference in cognitive function between current, past and non-users of cannabis. However, when we compared cognitive performance of the three cannabis groups by diagnostic grouping, current cannabis use had a significant negative relationship with cognitive function in people with affective psychoses, but not in those with non-affective psychoses. This finding requires replication and further investigation.
