Résumé :
Grown in parts of Mexico, the leaves of the herb, Salvia divinorum, produce hallucinogenic effects when smoked, chewed, or taken through infusion. The leaves have been used by Mazatec Indians for centuries, largely for ritualistic purposes. In this article, David N. Khey and his colleagues describe the results of a survey that was administered to students who were enrolled in a university in Florida. Approximately 15 percent of the sample had used Salvia divinorum, and these individuals were more likely to be white, male, and from upper-income backgrounds. The authors discuss the methods by which the students acquired the drug, the respondents' reports about the drug's "pleasure factor," and related issues. Shortly after this article was writ-ten, Florida introduced legislation that outlawed Salvia divinorum.
