INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
5 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Legalizing recreational marijuana in US states increased adult marijuana use?

Unclear. The retrieved items offer only partial, indirect support: one review notes recreational-legalization effects on use were not yet measured and only predicted, while other items report increased marijuana use or search interest among adolescents or in spillover areas rather than measured adult use in legalizing states. No item directly measures whether legalizing recreational marijuana increased adult marijuana use.
