The AP (8/31, Stobbe) reports, “Marijuana use is becoming more accepted among US adults as states loosen pot laws,” researchers found after analyzing survey results from “more than a half million US adults.”
The CBS News (8/31, Welch) website reports, “The trend comes as a growing number of states are changing laws to legalize medical, and to a lesser extent, recreational marijuana, which may be playing a role in” how the public perceives the drug. The findings were published online Aug. 31 in The Lancet Psychiatry.
