BACKGROUND: This paper examines genetic and environmental contributions to risk of cannabis dependence. METHOD: Symptoms of cannabis dependence and measures of social, family and individual risk factors were assessed in a sample of 6265 young adult male and female Australian twins born 1964-1971. RESULTS: Symptoms of cannabis dependence were common: 11.0% of sample (15.1% of men and 7.8% of women) reported two or...
