这篇文章考察了在赎回概念中设定的致幻剂(阿瓦斯卡、伊波加因、佩奥特和LSD)的药物替代。该模型考察了当代迷幻剂在药物替代中的宗教和世俗方法,无论是科学家还是在世界各地的宗教环境中。救赎模型假定,在精神或临床环境中适当使用一种精神活性物质有助于将个人从对另一种物质上瘾的不利影响中解放出来,从而恢复他们作为其社区或群体的正常成员的地位。数据来自美国、巴西、秘鲁和西非。对此提出了两个主要机制:根据个体通过酒精和鸦片类成瘾物质达到戒断目标的情况,考察了暗示的心理机制。正在进行的致幻剂研究强调了了解这种替代效果的神经生理学和神经化学机制。作者中的两位作者在巴西的Unaio do Vegtal(UDV)教堂进行的研究从模型的角度进行了检验。
This article examines drug substitution with regard to hallucinogens (ayahuasca, ibogaine, peyote and LSD) set within the concept of redemption. The model examines both religious and secular approaches to the contemporary use of hallucinogens in drug substitution, both by scientists and in religious settings worldwide. The redemptive model posits that the proper use of one psychoactive substance within a spiritual or clinical context helps to free an individual from the adverse effects of their addiction to another substance and thus restores them as functioning members of their community or group. Data is drawn from the U.S., Brazil, Peru, and West Africa. Two principle mechanisms for this are proposed: the psychological mechanism of suggestibility is examined in terms of the individual reaching abstinence goals from addictive substances such as alcohol and opiates. Neurophysiological and neurochemical mechanisms to understand the efficacy of such substitution are highlighted from ongoing research on hallucinogens. Research by two of the authors with the Unaio do Vegetal (UDV) Church in Brazil is examined in terms of the model.
