Changes on secondary outcomes, associations with communitas.
| Baseline (N = 819) | Key endpoint (N = 399) | Change scores vs. communitas | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M | SD | M | SD | t | p | d | r | p | |
| QIDS | 6.98 | 4.77 | 4.20 | 3.33 | −11.015 | <0.0001 | −0.60 | −0.11 | 0.04 |
| STAI | 13.53 | 4.27 | 11.13 | 3.65 | −11.745 | <0.0001 | −0.53 | −0.16 | <0.01 |

Means (M) and standard deviation (SD) are reported for each outcome at baseline (2 weeks before) and key endpoint (4 weeks after) a psychedelic retreat or ceremony. Significance and Cohen's d effect sizes are reported for two-sided pairwise t-tests, as well correlation coefficients with Communitas experienced during the psychedelic sessions. QIDS: Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology; STAI: Trait version of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; IPTS: warm tolerance subscale of the Interpersonal Tolerance Scale.
