  • A few debriefing and quality-control questions.
WHAT YOU GET FOR PARTICIPATION:

  • $40 Amazon gift card or digital US Bank Prepaid Card (emailed) or Prolific account (direct)
  • The ability to participate in another study where you can get $240 — for people who are already planning on using a psychedelic in the future
  • Helping the medical and scientific community understand the therapeutic and side effects of psychedelics!

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT US AND THE STUDY:

 
For folks worried that the study is a scam -- it is not a scam :) The $40 is because there's a lot of screening, and if you are someone who does questionnaires slowly it can take up to 4 hours. At least one mod here tried the study, and you can see testimony from other participants from Shroomery.org: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/29062490.
If you have questions or anything please feel free to comment or (way faster responses) email me at maximillian.greenwald@yale.edu :)

@Pandora did the ineligibility message say that you will be receiving an email because you have easily modifiable inclusion criteria? That's usually the case :) If not, then sorry that we won't be able to get your data in this study :(

I should be able to, but my English is not very good.
We do ask for English fluency for the study because a lot of the language in the questionnaires and game instructions is a little complicated/ambiguous to begin with (sorry -- that's my fault! New PhD student :) )
