The relationship between Ecstasy use (MDMA) and Visual Memory

17 January 2021

The study investigates the effects of ecstasy use on Visuospatial Memory Functioning (VF). VF involves the ability to recall visual and spatial information and is important in daily tasks, such as driving. I'm seeking volunteers who have either taken ecstasy in the past or have no prior use of the drug. You can take part in the procedures remotely. Participation involves a 25 minute series of questionnaires and a 10 minute puzzle. All findings are anonymous and confidential.
