Impact of Cannabis Consumption on Psychotic Symptoms and Reality Monitoring in Patients With Schizophrenia: a Real-life Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to examine the dual effects of cannabis consumption on both positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia, across laboratory and real-world contexts. By integrating ecological momentary assessment (EMA) with cognitive tasks such as reality monitoring, the research seeks to clarify how cannabis use influences symptom severity and cognitive functioning in individuals with schizophrenia. Gaining insight into these relationships may contribute to the development of more effective management strategies and ultimately improve outcomes for patients living with schizophrenia.
