Longitudinal 10-year study of offspring exposed to marijuana in utero indicated increased hyperactivity, impulsivity,
inattention, delinquency and problem-externalization. |
Cognitive performance in new-borns of 354 mothers were assessed
at 6.5, 12, and 13 months. Alcohol use during pregnancy was
associated with poorer cognitive performance. The use of cocaine
and tobacco was associated with smaller size at birth. No effects
were detected in relation to cannabis use.
