About the Course

This article explores the emotional processing of cannabis users. The authors created the Recreational Cannabis Use Evaluation to better understand the ecology of cannabis use in Colorado’s recreational system of high volume, potency, and variety. The R-CUE consists of questions regarding type of use and method of intake, including use of edibles, concentrates, and transdermal application, in addition to information about potential current use, relational previous use, and years of use. (This questionnaire will be of use for future research.) Processing was measured by event-related potential paradigms (ERPs) with a control of non-users.

This course is based on the reading-based online article, An Event-Related Potential Study on the Effects of Cannabis on Emotion Processing created by Lucy J. Troup, PhD. in 2016.
