但如果找不到翻譯的話,還是有機會。今年1月份發表於《法律與人類行為期刊》(Law and Human behavior)的研究表示「行為人的腔調會妨礙目擊者對其外表的記憶」。Pickel跟Staller兩位研究者發現,目擊者為了要聽懂超級重的口音,以致於全副注意力都放在「聽懂」這件事情上,對於行為人的外表卻常常記不清楚。
裸蓋菇素的研究引起了美國中央情報局 CIA 的注意,不過不是因為什麼違法亂紀的問題,而是他們⋯⋯也想「瞭解更多」!1950年代 CIA 有項名為 MK-Ultra 2 的精神控制計畫,希望找到一些可以作為吐真劑、審訊和行為操縱工具的潛力藥物。他們的實驗藥物包括裸蓋菇素、迷幻藥 LSD、嗎啡、海洛因、一種萃取自仙人掌的致幻劑麥斯卡林等,並在監獄、醫院、學校,甚至從巧立名目的慈善基金會裡招募試驗對象。3
