Asymmetry in Psychoactive Research: A Bibliometric Study on 15 Psychoactive Drugs

A bibliometric analysis of 956,703 publications on 15 psychoactive drugs (1960–2018) reveals asymmetric research attention: legal substances and depressants constituted 60–80% of the literature and different drugs showed heterogeneous growth patterns. The study also documents unexpected regional differences in output, implying cultural and political drivers and prompting governments and funders to rebalance research support to optimise therapeutic development and neuroscience knowledge.

Accounting for Microdosing Classic Psychedelics

Using semistructured interviews with 30 microdosers and the sociology of accounts, the authors show that participants offered no excuses but instead deployed six justificatory strategies—denial of injury, self-sustaining, self-fulfilment, appeal to normality, appeal to loyalties and knowledgeableness—when describing their practice. The study highlights how these justifications reveal microdosers’ subjective experiences and their attempts to align the practice with societal expectations.
