Exploring Medically Perceived Benefits, Use and Interest in Psychedelics and Cannabinoids

Cross-sectional observational survey (n=102 actual responses to date) collecting insights from first responders and military personnel on need for, use of, and interest in medical marijuana or psychedelic-assisted therapy programmes.

Target Enrollment
102 participants
Study Type
Phase NA observational
Design
Non-randomized

Detailed Description

The primary objective is to collect insights from first responders and military personnel on their need for, use of, and interest in physical and/or mental health medical marijuana or psychedelic-assisted therapy programmes to inform larger patient-oriented studies and clinical programme design.

Participants are recruited via unions and representative organisations across Canada, the United States, Oceana (notably Australia and New Zealand) and Europe (including the United Kingdom); sampling is non-probability and the investigators expect a modest response rate from a large invited cohort.
