Answer:
According to Becker the three stages that an individual must go through in order to use Marijuana for pleasure are:
- Learning the technique — This involves learning the "right" way to smoke the drug. Learning usually happens in the presence of others and or through observation;
- Learning to perceive the effects - According to Becker, the satisfaction from the 'being high' comes as a result of the symptoms and as well as ones ability to recognise the symptoms. When the novice learns to understand the symptoms, they become a source of "pleasure" to which they look forward to.
- Learning to enjoy the effects — Becker says that the effects are not pleasurable at the onset. The taste is acquired by reason of socialization with those who have come to appreciate the taste. Becker likens the acquisition of the taste for marijuana to how other tastes are acquired such as alcohol. Research shows that at the onset, the effects of marijuana may often be frightening, irritating and or abnormal unless these can be redefined in the brain as pleasurable, then the subject may not continue to use it.

The variable that a scientist observes to change while conducting an experiment is called the responding variable
.
The responding variable (also called dependent variable) is the variable that a scientist observes to change while conducting a scientific experiment. The responding variable depends on the independent variable (also called manipulated variable). When the independent variable is changed by the scientist, its effect on the responding variable is usually observed and recorded. Responding variables can be observed (such as taste) or measured (such as length) in an experiment.
