Résumé : | A comprehensive field study, including videotape coverage and extensive laboratory research, was carried out in a small agricultural community in Jamaica, the West Indies. The research sought to explore whether cannabis altered the user's cognitive and psychological frame of reference in a specific socioeconomic and cultural context. The findings indicate that 1) heavy cannabis smokers enact subtle alterations in daily agricultural activities directly related to cannabis-induced alterations in the stream of consciousness; 2) subjective (smoker) impressions of cannabis-induced alterations in specific tasks contrast with descriptions based on analysis of research records of those activities; 3) alterations associated with cannabis smoking seem to be appropriate to the users as members of the socioeconomic cultural system. Multidisciplinary research procedures are suggested for further study of these findings. (Author' s abstract) |
