Abstract

The article focuses on a study which investigated whether acute recreational use of ecstasy was linked with changes in individual perception of trustworthiness of people's faces and co-operative behaviors. Topics discussed include the link between acute ecstasy use and increased face trustworthiness ratings and increased cooperative behavior and a finding that suggest that a single dose of ecstasy enhances aspects of empathy.
