What is the IQ of a high person? Has this been tested?

Virtually unaffected unless they are a habitual (extremely) heavy user, the difference in that case being the same whether they are high at the time or not, a very slight decrease that recovers when they stop abusing.

Toke up, but you're still a degenerate for doing it.

I'm saying if somebody took an IQ test before they got high and immediately after getting high, what would the difference in scores be? Does "high thinking" help or hurt?

>> No.11287851

>>11287753
this is wrong

Light users (less than 5 joints a week) have increased IQ (5 points) while heavy users (average of 33 joints each week) have decreased IQ (4 points), in both cases it's temporary leveling off to baseline after at most 3 months

also worth noting, booze increases IQ when used in moderation. Something about alcohol increasing the brains ability to remove waste products that slightly increases IQ. Like many things in moderation they can be good.

Well, most drugs that give a high alter your state of mind and perceptions, IQ tests measure stuff like pattern recognition, memory retention, and symbol manipulation. I'd guess if you're high you'll probably perform worse on average compared to if you're well rested, well fed, healthy and completely lucid.

things that increase focus, like amphetamines, will increase your score a bit if you normally can't concentrate well.
weed and most other things would probably decrease your score a bit.
