- silverdrake11 9y agoMarijuana high decreases short term memory. Alzheimer's decreases short term memory. Not quite sure how this works..
- bluejekyll 9y ago> Marijuana high decreases short term memory There haven't been enough studies to actually prove this. Most show an issue while being high (and many studies combine marijuana usage with alcohol), but nothing that directly shows negative long-term effects. If this study is held up by their further human trials they mention, then it would indicate that pop-culture is probably wrong.
- bdavisx 9y agoI thought I had read a study once and the abstract said it as follows (which I found amusing): * Marijuana causes short-term short-term memory loss, but doesn't cause long-term short-term memory loss. Unfortunately I can't find the study info now (@ work, so I'm kinda limited on spending too much time research pot...)

- AckSyn 9y agoI think the key is in how much is being administered and what method. I'm sure the pothead next door will have different effects than someone who has been properly dosed by someone who know what they're doing.
