I don't know many hop heads, but based on a sample of one (Tkadm30) it seems that they have limited social skills in that they are unable to follow local etiquette, For example, by cherry picking data, failing to make his question clear, and ignoring previous information.

Those actions are impolite on a science web page.

First of all, cannabis smokers are not hop heads. If you care about politeness, why not show the example and calls things respectfully?

Second, there's substantial evidences that cannabis users may have enhanced social saliency and interpersonal communication skills: "Human studies have shown that marijuana heightens the saliency of social interactions (1), enhances interpersonal communication (2, 3), and decreases hostile feelings within small social groups (4)."

See: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4653148/

Of course you reject it because you smoke weed. You want to believe only the positive indications about weed smoking.

Why do you cite an article as basis for your statement that it may hardwire people to adapt against negative peer influence, but reject something else that shows a negative effect in the same article?

Hmm, I guess the ability to read scientific articles requires balanced criticism as well.

It's not all black or white.

 

 

Then why did you present it as evidence?

In my opinion there's evidences that cannabis users may be hardwired to adapt themselves agaisnt negative peer influence, but I reject their conclusions about the neurological basis of immature brain development.

 

that's about empathy, not empaths

 

 

"Empaths" are just people who express empathy.

I would like some inputs on my initial question, please.

 

 

Which discussion do you wish to pursue? Asking the question or presenting your own hypothesis? You don't get to do both in one thread.

I'm skeptical about the conclusions of the first article I linked. If cannabis smoking positively influence the mood and behavior, this unique neural response is probably a form of cognitive flexibility.

Now you need to support your hypothesis with evidence because you've posted in a conventional science section that requires such support.

Okay. Here is the supporting evidences:

2. http://www.eurekaselect.com/65967

Are chronic cannabis users less sensitive to negative peer influence? (ie: Bullying, ostracism, etc...)

How do chronic cannabis usage influence the mood and behavior?

My hypothesis is that long-term cannabis administration may positively influence civilized behavior and fine-tune serotonergic brain circuits connected to behavioral flexibility.

I'm back! Empathy and Love is connected to brain circuits into the limbic system...
