Entheogen Resurgence
Observational pilot survey (n=~102 actual) collecting anonymous self-reported data on intentions, experiences and demographics from people who attended entheogen therapy centres or retreats in the past five years.
Detailed Description
This anonymous, cross-sectional observational pilot survey collects self-reported data from adults who attended entheogen therapy centres or retreats in naturalistic settings during the past five years, focusing on intentions, motivations, experiences and willingness to participate in future research.
Substances of interest include plant-derived entheogens and related traditional practices (for example ayahuasca, kambo, hapé, bufo, and sananga); the study aims to characterise participant demographics, health behaviours and barriers to research participation.
