“…For example, controlled research has found that certain personality traits, e.g., ‘absorption’ and ‘neuroticism’ can predict the intensity and quality of a psychedelic experience (Studerus et al, 2012; Carhart-Harris et al, 2015, 2018; Carbonaro et al, 2016; Barrett et al, 2017) while readiness to ‘let go’ and quality of the environment also seems to be predictive of response (Carhart-Harris et al, 2018). In a similar fashion, the prevalence and nature of NDEs appear to be sensitive to environmental, demographic and personality variables, such as etiology and prognosis of the NDE, age, absorption and a propensity to report paranormal experiences (Kohr, 1983; Greyson, 2003).…”
