We endeavour to create a clearer and more comprehensive set of tools for establishing a variety of metaphysical positions that can be used in both research and clinical settings \u2013 especially those relating to psychedelic experiences. We have developed a set of survey items that will be given to over 400 participants, along with additional pre-existing survey items and open-text response questions. The results are to be analysed using several different modelling approaches, ranging from long-established methods such as factor-analysis, to more cutting-edge methods involving natural-language-processing and machine learning. There are two main aims of the study: 1) establish a refined set of survey items that best represent a range of metaphysical positions; 2) establish whether the metaphysical beliefs held by individuals are predictive of their language use in open text responses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9\"><div class=\"iframe-container\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"embed-responsive-item\"  title=\"Modelling Psychedelic Metaphysics \u2013 Dr Rennie Joseph and Dr Peter Sj\u00f6stedt-Hughes\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XgWq1rqnZz4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contributor &#8211; Speaker Peter is an Anglo-Scandinavian philosopher of mind who specializes in the thought of Whitehead, Nietzsche, and Spinoza, and in fields pertaining to panpsychism and altered states of mind.
