The study will run from 2013 to 2017 and will follow couples in which one or both partners use marijuana to determine whether its use ‘results in affective, cognitive, or behavioral effects consistent with partner aggression.’ NIDA has a $1.05 billion budget for 2013 and has publicly acknowledged that it does not fund research into the potential benefits of medical marijuana.”
