MDMA helps people build trust and get over betrayal
The study [Neuroscientists at King’s College London and Oxford University and published in the Journal of Neuroscience] aimed to investigate the effect of MDMA on decision-making behaviour.
MRI machines were used to scan the brains of the participants, finding that MDMA can help people to become more cooperative by creating greater activity in specific areas of the brain such as the anterior cingulate cortex, which is the part of your brain that processes the intentions of other people … [They] found that participants who had taken MDMA were more likely to work cooperatively than the participants who had taken the placebo.
