Cutaneous electrical stimulation was applied to the subjects’ fingers and thresholds were determined before and after smoking marihuana. It was found that marihuana affected thresholds by increasing sensitivity to both painful and nonpainful stimulation and reducing tolerance for pain. © 1974 by The Williams & Wilkins Co. ER -
