TY - JOUR PY - 1973// TI - Cannabis and alcohol: effects on estimation of time and distance JO - Psychopharmacology A1 - Bech, P. A1 - Rafaelsen, L. A1 - Rafaelsen, O.J. SP - 373 EP - 381 VL - 32 IS - 4 N2 - The effect of cannabis and alcohol on estimation of time and distance during simulated car driving was studied. Cannabis resin containing 4% δ1-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) was administered orally in 3 doses equivalent to 8, 12, and 16 mg THC. Alcohol was given orally in one dose of 70 g. The subjects were 8 men, 21 to 29 years old. Cannabis showed much stronger effect than alcohol on the estimation of time and distance. The effect of cannabis was more marked on the "subjective" than on the "objective" estimation. A dose-response type of effect was seen on cannabis. © 1973 Springer-Verlag.
