From a potency standpoint, the results were less than exciting. At low doses, performance scores did decline slightly and some subjects reported mild symptoms suggestive of marijuana effects. However, a substantial alteration in both cognitive performance and mood occurred only in one of the two individuals who received the highest dose (60 mcg/kg). This volunteer clearly showed a drop in performance scores, and developed clear-cut signs and symptoms of a marijuana high. [Pg.38]

Dr. Tart s data should lay to rest one of the nastiest myths the Anslinger brigade fostered about marijuana, i.e., that it leads to sexual and other violence. "Loss of control to the point of antisocial actions is reported to be the rarest of all marijuana effects recorded in the Tart study (p. 192). This is consistent with what s been found elsewhere in several NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) studies. One of the most meticulous of these, The Blumer Report, determined that use of the plant s leaves reduced violence in juvenile delinquents in Oakland. [Pg.297]

This chapter summarizes the methods and results of seven studies (1-7) in which the author examined the acute or chronic effects of marijuana on human associative processes and memory. Both semantic and episodic memory were examined. Semantic memory refers to memory for meanings of words, concepts, rules, abstract ideas, and so on, whereas episodic memory refers to memory for temporally dated episodes or events in a person s life, e.g., autobiographical information (8). Associative processes, semantic memory, and episodic memory were examined using three, three, and five different tests, respectively. The tests of associative processes, semantic memory, and episodic memory are listed in Tables 1-3, respectively, along with information about the results, the type of marijuana effects studied (i.e., acute or chronic), characteristics of subjects, periods of abstinence from marijuana use prior to testing, and doses of marijuana that were administered, if any. The results and other information in the tables may pro-... [Pg.217]
