Y_5_13 — Starvation and Dehydration: Cognitive Effects of Deprivation States
Starvation and dehydration — states of severe and prolonged nutritional and fluid deprivation — produce a characteristic and well-documented progression of cognitive, perceptual, and emotional alterations that constitute
Y_5_15 — Altitude Sickness and High-Altitude Consciousness: Mountain Visions
Altitude sickness — a spectrum of syndromes caused by hypobaric hypoxia (reduced oxygen partial pressure at elevation) — produces some of the most dramatic and well-documented involuntary altered states of consciousness
Y_5_06 — Extreme Environments, Isolation, and Consciousness
Extreme environments and prolonged isolation produce distinctive altered states of consciousness — hallucinations, dissociation, time distortion, the sensation of an unseen companion, and profound shifts in self-identity
Y_2_14 — Dying Process Phenomenology: Shared Death Experiences and After-Death Communication
The phenomenology of death and the experiences reported by those who witness the dying process include several distinct categories of altered-state phenomena that extend beyond the well-known near-death experience (NDE).
Y_2_09 — Sleep Paralysis, Hypnagogia, and Liminal States
Sleep paralysis — a temporary inability to move or speak while falling asleep or waking — is one of the most universal and culturally interpreted altered states, experienced by an estimated 7.6% of the general population
P_1_12 — Philosophy of Perception: Qualia, Illusion, and Direct Realism
