Small doses of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) (12.5–50 μg/kg) consistently facilitated learning of a brightness discrimination reversal. 2‐Bromo‐lysergic acid diethylamide (BOL‐148), a structural analogue of LSD, with similar peripheral anti‐5‐hydroxytrypamine activity but no psychotomimetic properties, had no effect in this learning situation at a similar dose (25 μg/kg). LSD, but not...
