• 00:00Hi everyone, I'm Bum Laksam
• 00:02from Suni Binghamton and I will
• 00:04present an overview of our work
• 00:06on the impacts of working memory,
• 00:08load and emotional reliance on
• 00:10state and positivity and emotional
• 00:12regulation and chronic cannabis
• 00:13users and non cannabis users.
• 00:17We employed A2 by three mixed model design.
• 00:21Our community participant poll
• 00:23consisted of 233 individuals
• 00:25after removing random responders.
• 00:27As for tasks, we utilize the mback
• 00:30task with images from the IOPS
• 00:32database as well as the latest
• 00:33counting and probability task and we
• 00:35have some other self report measures.
• 00:40We can see here in the results that
• 00:42both cannabis users and non users
• 00:44exhibited significantly greater
• 00:46impulsive responding following the
• 00:47high working memory load task compared
• 00:49to the low working memory load task.
• 00:52Additionally, we found that non cannabis
• 00:55users experienced significantly
• 00:57greater difficulties and emotion
• 00:58regulation compared to cannabis users.
• 01:04Here are some Mary interesting findings.
• 01:06After the low working memory task,
• 01:09cannabis users and the positive and
• 01:11neutral emotion conditions exhibited
• 01:13greater impulsive responding.
• 01:14However, after the high working memory task,
• 01:17non cannabis users in the negative
• 01:20emotion condition demonstrated greater
• 01:22levels of impulsive responding.
• 01:24And last, cannabis users demonstrated more
• 01:27difficulty in emotional regulation in the
• 01:30positive and negative emotion conditions
• 01:32as compared to non cannabis users.
• 01:34These findings highlight the complex
• 01:36relations among working memory,
• 01:38emotional states,
• 01:38and positivity and emotional regulation
• 01:41among cannabis users and non users and
• 01:43indicate that chronic cannabis use may
• 01:45be associated with both compensatory
• 01:47and deleterious effects on working
• 01:49memory and self regulatory systems.
• 01:51Thank you and please let me know
• 01:54if you have any questions.
