概括
远离大麻药房生活与更积极的医用大麻 (MC) 态度有关. 诊所密度没有显著影响观看,这表明其他因素影响公众对MC的看法.
科学领域:
- 社会科学 社会科学 社会科学
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 大麻研究 大麻研究
背景情况:
- 对于医用大麻 (MC) 的公众态度是混合的,特别是在娱乐大麻 (RC) 合法的地方.
- 了解大麻零售环境对MC观念的影响至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 调查大麻药房的近距离和密度以及公众对大麻药店的态度之间的关系.
- 为了测试假设,更接近或更高密度的药房与更负面的MC态度相关.
主要方法:
- 一项在线调查 (N=935) 使用医用大麻态度量表 (MCAS) 评估了人们的态度.

Surveys
14.7K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Quantitative Aspects of Drug-Receptor Interaction
889
The receptor occupancy theory connects a drug's response to the number of occupied receptors. With higher drug concentrations, more receptors are occupied, leading to increased responses. The formation of drug-receptor complexes involves association and dissociation rates, which reach equilibrium when the forward and backward reactions are equal. The equilibrium association constant (Ka) and its inverse, the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd), indicate drug affinity. Higher Ka and lower...

Drug Distribution: Tissue Binding
2.4K
Upon entering the systemic circulation, drugs can distribute into the interstitial and intracellular fluid of various tissue cells. This distribution is facilitated by the binding of drugs to different cellular components within tissues, which may lead to drug accumulation in specific areas. Drugs bound to tissue components serve as reservoirs that release free drugs back into the system, prolonging the drug's overall action. However, this accumulation can also result in local toxicity.

The Availability Heuristic
5.8K
A heuristic is a general problem-solving framework (Tversky & Kahneman, 1974). You can think of these as mental shortcuts that are used to solve problems. Different types of heuristics are used in different types of situations, and the impulse to use a heuristic occurs when one of five conditions is met (Pratkanis, 1989):

Factorial Design
12.5K
Factorial Analysis is an experimental design that applies Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistical procedures to examine a change in a dependent variable due to more than one independent variable, also known as factors. Changes in worker productivity can be reasoned, for example, to be influenced by salary and other conditions, such as skill level. One way to test this hypothesis is by categorizing salary into three levels (low, moderate, and high) and skills sets into two levels (entry level...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: Cannabinoids
184
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a phytocannabinoid that primarily interacts with the CB1 receptor, a type of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) predominantly in and around the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) and emetic center. THC also blocks the serotonin receptor activity in the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) by inhibiting serotonin release. THC exerts its anti-emetic effects through these interactions, which are beneficial for patients undergoing chemotherapy.
