Background & Research
S. Gandy (full first name not provided in the supplied records) is a psychologist and researcher working at the intersection of psychedelic science, psychometrics and environmental psychology. Their published and draft work in the provided database focuses on measurement and conceptualisation of subjective effects of classical psychedelics, including revisiting the psychometric properties of acute-effect rating scales, and the development of the Watts Connectedness Scale to quantify a sense of connectedness to self, others and the world. Gandy has also examined the contextual and state-mediated effects of psychedelics on nature relatedness and explored psychological variables implicated in the therapeutic effects of ayahuasca.
Key Impact
Notable for contributions to psychometric assessment in psychedelic research and for development of measures of connectedness and nature relatedness in the context of psychedelic experience.
