“…In the United States of America, Cox and colleagues [11] documented that cannabis smoking was related to low academic achievement (OR = 1.90, 95%CI 1.20 - 2.90). Similarly, in a small sample of Colombian students, Guerrero-Martelo and colleagues [12] found that cannabis smoking raises the possibility of low academic achievement (OR = 11.00, 95%CI 3.53 - 37.43). Some longitudinal studies showed that cannabis smoking increased academic dropout risk; academic dropout is generally associated with poor academic achievement [36].…”

“…Cox and colleagues [11] found in 1,488 high school students from the United States that cannabis smoking was two-fold associated with low academic achievement. Finally, Guerrero-Martelo and colleagues [12], in 156 Colombian students, found that cannabis smoking increased the risk of low academic achievement ten times.…”

“…These variables can act as confounding variables or interact with academic achievement [18]. The studies that analyzed the association between cannabis smoking and academic achievement did not adjust for the relationship with confounding variables, such as depressive symptoms and family function [11, 12]. The present research studied and adjusted the association between cannabis smoking and academic achievement for depressive symptoms and family function.…”

A cross-sectional study was designed with high-school students. The study's objective was to establish the relationship between cannabis smoking and academic achievement, adjusted for clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction. The authors quantified lifetime cannabis smoking, perception of academic achievement, clinically important depressive symptoms, and family dysfunction. It was computed crude association between cannabis smoking and academic achievement and adjusted by clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction. A total of 1,462 students between 13 and 17 years participated in the research; 11.63% reported lifetime cannabis smoking; 30.78%, poor-fair academic achievement; 7.05%, clinically important depressive symptoms; and 76.06%, family dysfunction. The lifetime cannabis smoking was significantly associated with poor-fair academic achievement after adjusting for clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction (OR = 1.61, 95%CI 1.16 - 2.24). In conclusion, lifetime cannabis smoking is related to poor-fair academic achievement among high-school students in Santa Marta, Colombia.

“…Con base en datos que menciona la Oficina de las Naciones Unidas Contra la Droga y el Delito se encontró que en 2019 hubo un consumo aproximadamente de 13,1 millones de personas que consumían cannabis en el mundo, dando por resultado que fuera la droga ilegal más utilizada por las personas de 15 a 64 años. Y de acuerdo con Guerrero et al (2020) la prevalencia de consumo de marihuana entre los adolescentes se sitúa alrededor del 4.35% y 8.31% y se estima que el consumo tuviera inicios a los 16 años, con una tendencia por incluso tener comienzos a edades cada vez menores, provocando un mayor riesgo en un rendimiento académico.…”

En este artículo cualitativo se investiga el impacto del consumo de marihuana en el rendimiento escolar a través de las percepciones de estudiantes de una universidad pública del estado de Hidalgo. Mediante entrevistas semi estructuradas, se recopiló un conjunto de datos sobre cómo los estudiantes perciben la influencia de la marihuana en sus capacidades cognitivas, motivación, atención y memoria, así como en sus interacciones sociales y comportamiento académico. Los hallazgos revelan una interacción entre el consumo de marihuana y el rendimiento escolar, influenciada por factores individuales, contextuales y sociales. Mientras algunos participantes reportaron algunos efectos negativos, como disminución en la concentración y el rendimiento escolar, otros describieron un uso moderado como una estrategia para manejar el estrés y la ansiedad relacionados con el estudio. El análisis temático subraya la importancia de considerar el contexto social y emocional en el que se consume la marihuana, sugiriendo que las repercusiones en el rendimiento escolar no pueden ser entendidas aisladamente de estos factores.

Background: Cannabis smoking can affect academic achievement, and depressive symptoms and family dysfunction are also associated with it. The study’s objective was to establish the relationship between cannabis smoking and academic achievement, linked to clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction. Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed. The authors quantified lifetime cannabis smoking, perception of academic achievement, clinically important depressive symptoms, and family dysfunction. The crude association between cannabis smoking and academic achievement was computed; after it was adjusted by clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction. Results: 1,462 students between 13 and 17 participated in the research; 11.6% reported lifetime cannabis smoking, 30.8% poor-fair academic achievement; 7.1% clinically important depressive symptoms; and 76.1% family dysfunction. Lifetime cannabis smoking was significantly associated with poor-fair academic achievement after adjusting for clinically important depressive symptoms and family dysfunction (OR = 1.61, 95%CI 1.16 - 2.24).
