Summary Cannabis dependence is controversial. Does it occur? What are the signs? How many people are affected? What are the health risks? Are there effective interventions? Have they been tested on adults and adolescents? Should we legalize, regulate, or prohibit? This state-of-the-science review sets out to answer all those questions.
