A recent Dutch study of 4,000 people in the general population showed that those taking large amounts of cannabis were almost seven times more likely to have psychotic symptoms three years later

Here's the problem with this type of article. We need to know what *seven times more likely to have psychotic symptoms,* means.
How likely is it that a non-cannibis smoking individual will experience psychotic symptoms? I need the statistics to know what is being said here.
I can guess tho', that it's a tiny fraction of the general population, and seven times a tiny fraction is...still a tiny fraction.

I have a strong intuition that the studies are bullshit, but until someone posts the actual studies, there can be no informed discussion about them.

Exactly.
