Research investigating the relation between marihuana use and achievement is characterized by conflicting findings and a relative lack of multivariate designs. Since the conflicting findings may be due, in part, to differing conceptualizations of achievement, this study utilizes a number of variables to measure various facets of achievement orientation and performance. Furthermore, these relationships are tested in a multivariate design while other relevant factors are held constant. The data of this study strongly support the contention that there is no significant relation between marihuana use and achievement orientations, or performance. But what is of greater importance, the results question the findings of studies that have not taken into consideration relevant control variables in their analyses
