Abstract
Given the significant recent concern regarding the interaction between cannabis use and psychosis in the US, our study investigated the incidence of psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) in a sample of adult regular cannabis users. Analyses revealed associations between levels of cannabis use, PLEs and age in this population.
