In the published article, there was an error regarding the average number of ayahuasca uses in the ayahuasca group in Study 1. A correction has been made to the Results, 2.2.1 Participants characteristics. This sentence previously stated:

“Briefly, on average, our study participants have used ayahuasca (mean = 69.4 ± 98.7), 6.4 times more than psilocybin (mean = 10.7 ± 15.4, U = 1378, p < 0.01, rp = 1), 5.7 times more than mescaline (mean = 12 ± 14.9, U = 351, p < 0.01, rp = 1), and 7.07 times more than LSD (mean = 9.9 ± 16.6, U = 976, p < 0.01, rp = 1).”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“Briefly, on average, our study participants have used ayahuasca (55.7 ± 82.1), 5.2 times more than psilocybin (mean = 10.7 ± 15.4, U = 1378, p < 0.01, rp = 1), 4.6 times more than mescaline (mean = 12 ± 14.9, U = 351, p < 0.01, rp = 1), and 5.6 times more than LSD (mean = 9.9 ± 16.6, U = 976, p < 0.01, rp = 1).”

In the published article, there was an error in Figure 2 and Figure 3 as published. The authors inadvertently used SD (Standard Deviation) in the bar plots in the figures instead of SEM (Standard Error of the Mean). In the original captions we reported SEM. The corrected Figure 2 and Figure 3 and their captions appear below.

The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
