  • Most studies using an emotion regulation perspective have focused on acute emotional engagement and breakthrough rather than on evaluating and challenging automatic cognitions and core beliefs during a psychedelic session.

    “However, most studies that have used an emotion regulation perspective have focused more heavily on acute emotional engagement and breakthrough rather than on the ability to evaluate and challenge the validity of automatic cognitions and core beliefs during a psychedelic session (Close et al., 2020; Roseman et al., 2019; Thiessen et al., 2018).”

  • Recent prospective studies indicate psychological flexibility is a key component in outcomes following psychedelic use.

    “A few recent studies, including three prospective studies, have suggested that psychological flexibility is a key component in psychedelic-induced outcomes (Close et al., 2020; Davis et al., 2020; Zeifman et al., 2020).”

  • Two prospective studies used naturalistic volunteer samples with high attrition (>50%), which may have introduced self-selection and sample biases limiting generalizability.

    “Second, although two of these studies employed prospective designs, their use of naturalistic, volunteer samples with high rates of attrition (> 50%) may have contributed self-selection and sample biases that limit generalizability (Close et al., 2020; Zeifman et al., 2020).”

  • Across three prospective samples, psychological flexibility increased and covaried over time with clinical outcomes such as depression and suicidality.

    “In particular, across three prospective samples, psychological flexibility showed signs of increasing and covarying over time with clinical outcomes including depression and suicidality (Close et al., 2020; Zeifman et al., 2020).”

  • Prospective surveys have found psychological flexibility to be negatively correlated with depression scores post psychedelic use.

    “Other prospective surveys have found psychological flexibility (a set of processes which allow one to adapt to various demands, maintain balance across various domains and be open to and committed to behaviours congruent to their values) to be negatively correlated with depression scores post psychedelic use [58, 59].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
