The Top 10 Reasons People Smoke Weed According to a Few New Studies

Psychology Today recently published a blog that dealt with this very issue. They took data from four different studies attempting to solve this riddle and published some of the findings.  In this article, we’ll be taking a closer look at the studies as well as the conclusions made by the researchers. This will allow us to reflect on the data and compare our own motivations for consuming cannabis. While you may not agree with what will be discussed – bare in mind that these papers are typically based on secondary research. In other words, they rely on surveys and data collected from other sources which they use to build a “picture” of the average consumer.
