摘要
Twelve experienced marijuana users received marijuana cigarettes containing 10 mg Δ9-THC or placebo in two experimental sessions each separated by a one week interval. The effects of both treatments on pulse rate, subjective estimates of intoxication, multiple measures of memory including free, serial and delayed recall, final free recall, and recognition memory were assessed. Pulse rate and subjective ratings were elevated significantly following intoxication with active marijuana in comparison to placebo. Each of the three types of recall were significantly reduced following intoxication with marijuana but no differential effects of drug on recall condition were noted. Intrusion errors were elevated on the final free recall test following intoxication but recognition memory was unaffected. © 1979.
