| Abstract | Cannabis use is strongly associated with short-term memory and attention problems. Ecstasy use is associated with deficits in memory and executive function. Chronic cocaine use is also linked to impaired executive function and to poor decision-making. These effects may be persistent and long term; more research is needed to clarify this. |
