Fig 3. Correlations between personality trait absorption and subjective experiences during Flicker Light Stimulation (FLS).

Fig 3

To test the hypothesis that the personality trait of Absorption affects the overall experience of an altered state of consciousness (ASC), we tested for respective correlations in the data. Correlations of participants’ trait of Absorption scores, as assessed with the Tellegen Absorption Scale (TAS) [19], with the G-ASC scores (global mean scores of three 5D-ASC dimensions, reflecting the etiology-independent core of ASCs) are depicted for the 3 Hz and 10 Hz condition. Significant correlations are indicated as *p < .025, **p < .005, and ***p < .0005 (α-threshold Bonferroni-corrected for two comparisons).
