Detaljert beskrivelse
The study aims to assess the association between the use of various substances (including psychedelic and non-psychedelic drugs) and personality profiles. Specifically, the association between past drug usage and personality profiles will be investigated. As psychedelics were found to influence changes in personality over time, the present study aims to measure both the current personality profile (via the Big Five Inventory-44 (BFI)) and perceived retrospective changes in personality (via a self-constructed Retrospective Personality Scale (RPS)). To our knowledge, no study has explored the diversity of substance use histories in relation to individual current and retrospective personality traits and aggregate personality profiles.
This project aims to survey a large number of participants from all around the world, using a mobile app-based survey. The remote character of the study will increase its accessibility and diversity, which are common shortcomings in the psychedelic line of research. Additionally, a remote, anonymous study setup with no face-to-face interactions might help overcome any potential concerns participants may have regarding the sharing of sensitive information (e.g., reports on illicit substance use).
To increase scientific transparency and for educational purposes, the study team plans to share results summaries (comparisons of personalized results with the aggregated ones among participants sharing similar characteristics e.g., age, substance use history), which might be an additional motivating factor for study completion. Lastly, given that drug use in the natural environment (excluding laboratory/experimental setting) is characterized by large substance diversity and poly-drug use, we aim for a large sample size (with a minimum of 36 subjects per substance(s) category) to perform subgroup analyses. Therefore, this large-scale, low-budget, naturalistic, retrospective, observational study aims to shed light on the aforementioned gap in the literature and to lay a foundation of evidence for further (observational and experimental) research within the field.

Gruppe / Kohort |
---|
Psychedelics-only Group
A group of participants who reported using in their past psychedelic substances only (both classical and non-classical psychedelics are included). Specifically, in the current study this group included reports on the following substances: Psilocybin (magic mushrooms, truffles) LSD (acid) Mescaline (peyote, san pedro) Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) Ayahuasca 5-MeO-DMT 3-MMC Ibogaine Salvia Phenethylamines (2C family) |
Stimulants-only Group
A group of participants who reported using in their past drugs identified as stimulating compounds only (both recreational and prescribed usages are included). Stimulating compounds are considered, in the context of the current study, substances that increase the overall activity of the central nervous system. Specifically, in the current study this group included reports on the following substances: Cocaine Crack Amphetamines Methamphetamines Prescription stimulants (e.g., Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta) |
Gruppe med kun depressiva
En gruppe deltakere som rapporterte at de tidligere brukte rusmidler, ble identifisert som bare deprimerende forbindelser (både rekreasjonsbruk og foreskrevet bruk er inkludert). Deprimerende forbindelser anses, i sammenheng med den nåværende studien, som stoffer som reduserer den totale aktiviteten til sentralnervesystemet. Nærmere bestemt, i den nåværende studien inkluderte denne gruppen rapporter om følgende stoffer: Benzodiazepiner Opiater (rekreasjonsbruk av heroin, opium, hydrokodon, oksykodon, oksymorfon, kodein, fentanyl) Reseptbelagte opioider |
Cannabinoidgruppen
En gruppe deltakere som rapporterte at de bare brukte cannabinoidforbindelser tidligere (både rekreasjonsbruk og foreskrevet bruk er inkludert). Nærmere bestemt, i den nåværende studien inkluderte denne gruppen rapporter om følgende stoffer: THC (cannabis, marihuana) CBD Medisinsk Cannabis (både THC og CBD) |
Psychedelic and Non-psychedelic Substances Group
A group of participants who reported using in their past drugs identified as psychedelics and stimulants and/or depressants (both recreational and prescribed usages are included). In this group participants will be included who reported using at least one non-psychedelic drug additionally to a psychedelic one. Specifically, the following options were provided:
THC (cannabis, marijuana) Medical Cannabis (both THC and CBD) CBD MDMA (ecstasy) Ketamine Cocaine Crack Amphetamines Methamphetamines Prescription stimulants (e.g., Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta) Benzodiazepines Opiates (e.g., heroin, opium, hydrocodone, oxycodone, oxymorphone, codeine, fentanyl) Prescription opioids |
Stoffnaiv gruppe
En gruppe deltakere som ikke rapporterte tidligere erfaring med noen av stoffene som er oppført i den nåværende studien eller rapporterte om bruk av andre stoffer (unntatt alkohol og nikotin).
Deltakere vil bli tildelt denne gruppen hvis og bare hvis de velger "Ingen av de ovennevnte"-alternativet fra Rusmiddelundersøkelsen (punkt 1).
