Y. and Z." This is generally adequate for most drugs. Heavy doses of barbiturates make a person
drowsy. Penicillin cures certain diseases. Amphetamines stimulate people.
When it comes to drugs whose effects are primarily psychological, however, the tendency to think
that drug A has effects X, Y. and Z can be very misleading and introduces confusion. That type of

statement attributes certain sorts of invariant qualities to the chemical effect of the drug on the nervous
system. When dealing with psychoactive drugs such as marijuana or LSD, however, both scientific
research and the experience of users have made it clear that there are very few "invariant" qualities that
are somehow inherent in or "possessed by" the drug itself. Rather, the particular effects of a drug are
primarily a function of a particular person taking a particular drug in a particular way under particular
conditions at a particular time.
Potential Effects Model
The conceptual scheme used in this book for understanding the variability of effects with
psychoactive drugs may be called the potential effects model. Basically, the observable effects of a
psychoactive drug such as marijuana are of three types. First are what might be considered pure drug
effects, i.e., effects almost always manifested when a particular drug is taken, regardless of person,
place, situation, and time. Such effects are probably due primarily to the chemical nature of the drug as it
interacts with common characteristics of human body chemistry. With many psychoactive drugs, pure
drug effects are only a small portion of the total effects possible.
Potential drug effects are effects that are made possible by the ingestion of a particular psychoactive
drug but that will not manifest (become noticeable to the user or an observer) unless various non-drug
factors operate in the proper manner; i.e., potential effects manifest only under certain conditions. These
conditions will be discussed at length below. These potential effects constitute the majority of effects for
a drug such as marijuana.
Insofar as potential effects constitute the bulk of effects for marijuana intoxication, it is misleading to
talk about the effects of marijuana per se, as is commonly done. Rather, we must speak of the effects of
marijuana on certain types of people under certain types of conditions. (A third category of effects under
this model is not, properly speaking, drug effects at all, but placebo effects, or pure psychological
effects. These are effects brought about by non-drug factors entirely. If the particular configuration of
non-drug factors necessary to produce a particular placebo effect occurs frequently under conditions
usually associated with taking a particular drug, the effect will probably be, erroneously, ascribed to the
drug.)
