我聽說裸頭草鹼是迷幻蘑菇中的一種迷幻成分，能改變人的性格使他們的性格變得更好。 這是真的嗎？ Well， first， before answering the question， we need to be clear that psilocybin is an illegal substance。 And although psychedelic mushrooms are not known to be addictive， their effects can be unpredictable and extremely unpleasant。 首先，在回答這個問題之前，我們需要清楚的明白裸頭草鹼是一種非法物品。 雖然我們還不清楚迷幻蘑菇是否會讓人上癮，但是它們的影響是不可預測的而且不容樂觀的。 Right，but scientists with government permission are able to experiment with psilocybin。 And in one study researchers did in fact find that some people who took a single dose of psilocybin experienced altered personalities for more than a year。 In most cases， the alterations were positive subjects who had what they called a mystical experience while on the drug showed increases in a personality trait known as openness。 對的，只有得到政府允許的科學家們才能夠用裸草頭鹼做實驗。 在一次實驗中科學家確實發現一些有服用一定劑量裸頭草鹼的人的性格的確發生了改變，並且持續了一年多經。 在大多數情況下，試驗者身上會產生積極的變化，這他們被認為是經歷了一次神秘的過程，在這種藥物作用下，他們性格中外向開放的那一面有所彰顯。 Which is pretty much what it sounds like： being more open to and appreciative of art， music， other people。 Openness also means being more imaginative， intellectually engaged， and more aware of feelings in yourself and in others。 Which all sounds pretty good。 But note that most of the subjects in the study were people already into mystical practices such as prayer and meditation。 這幾乎就是那些聽到的東西：試驗者變得更加開放，對藝術、音樂和其他人更有欣賞力。 開放也意味著更富有想象力、有更多的智慧並且更清楚的意識到對你自己和對別人的感覺。 這聽起來的確很不錯。 但是注意到大多數研究的主體是已經融入到神秘實踐如祈禱和思考中去的人們。 So it’s not as though anyone who wants to become a nicer person can simply take a dose of psilocybin and be instantly transformed。 所以並不是任何一個想把自己性格變好的人都能透過服用一定劑量的裸草頭鹼就立刻改變。 It’s possible that the effect only happens with people already leaning toward openness。 But it’s also possible that psilocybin could be used to help treat people with personality disorders and other psychological problems。 除非在注射之前他們已經是偏外向型性格。 但是，草頭鹼還是有可能被用於去輔助治療那些有性格缺陷和其他心理問題的人。
