Suggest exploring the legalisation and destigmatisation/cultural shift of cannabis use. U3191488 (discuss • contribs) 13:37, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
Hello, good work on the chapter so far. I have found an interesting study that was done that looks at the affect on cannabis on the brain in adolescents with some solid evidence which could help strengthen some of your points. Hope this helps! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3930618/ U3216389 (discuss • contribs) 01:42, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
Is it worth exploring more brain chemicals than just dopamine or possibly comparing brain chemical alteration between cannabis and other substances such as nicotine or alcohol. - U3216502
Hello, great work on the chapter so far! I thought it might be worth me suggesting you look further into how cannabis is used medically as you mention in the brief history section that cannabis is predominantly smoked medically. I have a relative who is prescribed cannabis for medical use and the delivery of this medication doesn't involve smoking. I am not aware of medical treatment involving smoking cannabis. That being said, I haven't done empirical research into this but I thought it could be worth my suggesting some further clarification in this section. You could use discussion surrounding self-medication vs clinical medication to explore this clarification because self-medicating with cannabis does usually involve smoking. Hope this helps :) --Sophia246 (discuss • contribs) 10:08, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi! here is a great resource for understanding dopamine and the reward system https://neuroscientificallychallenged.com/posts/know-your-brain-reward-system
Section 2 of this journal article provides a great overview of the anatomy of motivation and has the bonus of being a scientific source! https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbb.2013.06.011 U3162201 (discuss • contribs) 01:19, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi, such an interesting read! I found an interesting study on 'Assessment of transient dopamine responses to smoked cannabis' which you may find helpful. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0376871621004154 Gabrielle Eagling

Hi, here is a peer-reviewed journal articles that goes straight to the effects of cannabis on the dopaminergic reward systems of the brain:
Heading casing edit
Hi U3246310. FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example: Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development -- Jtneill - Talk - c 22:37, 11 October 2022 (UTC) |
Content suggestion edit
Hi there, I enjoyed reading your chapter it was quite engaging. Have you had a look into naturally occurring cannabinoids that humans produce in comparison to those in cannabis. It would be interesting to compare the effects each of these have on someone. U3216963 (discuss • contribs) 16:22, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
Suggestion for attitudes towards Cannabis edit
Great Job! Lot's of good sources and info. I might suggest for the attitudes towards cannabis portion that the impact of media like Reefer Madness be discussed. Discussing how that movie and similar educational movies made at the time in America and their influence on the public perception on Cannabis could be really intresting and helpful if you wanted to look further into how it was viewed during the 1930s.
