For subjects where LSD induced regressively altered earliest memories, these subjects tended to have poorly integrated personalities. Changes in self and body image also occurred. For subjects who had impulsive, rigid, inhibited and obsessive personality traits, LSD did not induce constriction of earliest memories. Subjects in the placebo group did not have an association between alterations in earliest memory recall and personality make-up. The results are limited by the use of all males and must be interpreted with the caveat of how research methodology has changed since the 1960s.
Study Summary
Fifty male subjects underwent a double-blind study to test the effects of LSD on early memories and personality aspects. Early memories were assessed using an earliest-memory recall and personality traits were measured with a variety of tests. LSD produced regressive trends in recollections and produced a constricting effect on the recall during the earliest-memory recall task. These effects were associated with changes in personality.
