A bstract Two experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that smoked marijuana interferes with short‐term retention by disrupting storage phase of memory process. In first experiment, information was presented after smoking, and recalled at a later time; in second prior smoking smoking. Ten male students who experienced users participated three conditions each experiment: control (no smoking); placebo (THC‐delta‐9‐free marijuana); (= 20 mg THC‐delta‐9). Experiment 1, occurred...
