In a double-blind study, normal subjects given small doses of DOM (a hallucinogen related to mescaline and amphetamine, also known as STP) and its ethyl homologue DOET experienced increased self-awareness and mild euphoria without hallucinogenic or psychotomimetic effects. Both drugs freed up word associations without impairing memory or concentration; DOM even enhanced performance on serial learning tasks. DOM did not affect visual discrimination but altered perception of tachistoscopically presented TAT cards.
