Assessment of the effects of drugs on memory
Abstract
This survey is based on 70 controlled investigations of the effects of drugs on memory in healthy volunteers. Although detracting effects were predominant, enhancements were reported as well. The effects of 29 well-known drugs on 15 familiar tests are summarized in a way that permits comparisons of the effects of different drugs and of test sensitivities. There is a discussion of factors that could bias or obscure investigations of the effects of drugs on learning and remembering.
