Scientific research continues to reach conclusions that fly in the face of long-believed myths about cannabis use, such as marijuana makes you stupid or never want to exercise. Now, researchers have busted another false belief: Cannabis causes laziness. Researchers from the University of Memphis studied 47 college students and found cannabis users were more likely than non-users to engage in effort-related decision-making tasks. The study’s findings are consistent with recent studies on weed’s impact on motivation. For example, a 2020 study found that people over 60 who use cannabis felt more motivated to exercise regularly.
