This paper presents an argument for research into the means of altering individual attitudes, values, and communication abilities in the direction of increased social empathy, which, in turn, would produce a more favorable environment for resolving differences and facilitate peaceful negotiations between individuals and nations. It is proposed that prior research with the drug, d-lysergic acid...

A follow-up survey of 247 persons who received d-lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) in either an experimental (nonmedical) or Psychotherapeutic setting was made to determine the lasting effects, if any, related to use of the drug. Information was collected from each by a structured interview and self-administered questionnaire. Some subsequent nonmedical use of LSD was reported by 23%, who...

The frequencies of spontaneous abortions, premature births, and birth defects in 121 human pregnancies following relatively infrequent, low doses of medically administered lysergic acid diethylamide are within the normal ranges. The incidence of spontaneous abortions was above average for a small sample of 27 pregnancies where LSD was ingested under both medical and nonmedical conditions....

TWO animal experiments have indicated that relatively large doses of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) can produce changes in central nervous system (CNS) function which persist for periods of time considerably longer than are usually estimated as necessary for drug detoxication. Adey1reports cats given a single dose of LSD in amounts of 80µg/kg showed disruption of conditioned responses and...

In a single-blind study chromosome analyses were performed on three groups of subjects: 1) nine heavy users of LSD-25 who have continued to use the drug; 2) eight heavy users of LSD-25 who have ceased to use it; and 3) eight drug-free control subjects. The results revealed no significant differences in chromosome break-age rates between any of the three groups and therefore no temporal factor...

THIS IS A report of a study designed to measure personality, attitude, value, interest, and performance changes resulting from the administration of LSD to normals. Several investigators using LSD with humans in nontherapy experiments have observed that some of their subjects report various lasting effects attributable to the drug experience. 1,2 In addition, the recent controversy over the...

This study describes the short-term effects of administering LSD to normals as measured by pre and one-week-post-LSD tests of anxiety, attitudes, and performance. The hypothesis tested was that LSD would produce a rapid lowering of defenses resulting in (1) lower anxiety, (2) attitudinal changes, particularly in the form of decreased dogmatism and projection of aggression, and (3) increases in...
