Sensory effects
A prominent experience amongst coluracetam's effects is its ability to enhance the immediate five senses.
 
Colour enhancement
Colour enhancement can be defined as the experience of colors generally starting to stand out more and becoming extremely bright or vivid. During this experience, reds may seem “redder”, greens may seem “greener, ” and all colors will likely have become much more distinct, powerful and intense to look at than they comparatively would be during everyday, sober living.
Auditory enhancement
Auditory enhancements can be described as an enhancement of the acuteness and clearness of sound. This can result in becoming extremely aware of all sounds around oneself with the perception of an enhanced ability to comprehend multiple layers of noise and to better identify their direction and location.
The most common manifestation of this effect is a greatly enhanced appreciation of music. This can allow people the experience of listening to songs in a level of detail that is unparalleled during everyday sober living.
 
Mindfulness
Mindfulness can be described as a psychological concept which is well established within the scientific literature and commonly discussed in association with meditation. It is often broken down into two separate components both of which comprise the experience of mindfulness itself. The first of these components involves the self-regulation of attention so that its focus is completely directed towards immediate experience, thereby quietening one's internal narrative and allowing for increased recognition of external and mental events within the present moment. The second component of mindfulness involves adopting a particular orientation toward one’s experiences in the present moment that is characterized by a lack of judgement, curiosity, openness, and acceptance.
 
Tactile enhancement
Tactile enhancement can be described as an overall enhancement in the intensity of one's sense of touch and a general increase in a person's overall awareness of the physical sensations across their body.  Throughout normal sober living, most people can only maintain awareness of the tactile sensations which are relevant to their current situation. This effect can result in tactile sensations such as touching, hugging, kissing, and sex becoming greatly enhanced in terms of the pleasure they induce. However, it can also result in an over-sensitivity of the skin which causes the same sensations to become uncomfortable and overwhelming.
Physical effects
 Stimulation - The stimulation which coluracetam presents can be considered as primarily subtle and short lasting, comparable to that of caffeine.
Cognitive effect

Wakefulness
Wakefulness can be described as an increased ability to stay conscious without feeling tired combined with a decreased need to sleep. It is contrasted with stimulation in that it does not directly increase one's energy levels above a normal baseline but instead produces feelings of a wakeful, well-rested and alert state.

Anxiety suppression
Anxiety suppression can be described as the partial to complete suppression of a person’s ability to feel anxiety, nervousness, general unease and negative feelings of psychological tension. The experience of this effect may decrease anxiety-related behaviour such as rumination, muscular tension, panic attacks, and restlessness.

Thought connectivity
Thought connectivity can be described as an alteration of a person's thought stream characterized by a distinct increase in wandering thoughts which connect into each other through a fluid association of ideas. Thoughts may be subjectively experienced as a continuous stream of vaguely related ideas which tenuously connect into each other by incorporating a concept that was contained within the previous thought. When experienced, it is often likened to a complex game of word association.During this state, it is often difficult to consciously guide the direction of ones thoughts. This may result in one's train of thought contemplating an extremely broad variety of subjects, which range from important, trivial, insightful, and nonsensical topics.

Focus enhancement
Focus enhancement can be described as the experience of an increased ability to selectively concentrate on an aspect of the environment while ignoring other things. It can be best characterized by feelings of intense concentration which can allow one to focus on and perform tasks which would otherwise be considered too monotonous, boring, or dull to not get distracted from. This will often synergize with other coinciding effects such as motivation enhancement, thought acceleration, and stimulation.

Immersion enhancement
Immersion enhancement can be described as an effect which results in a pronounced increase in one's tendency to become fully captivated or engrossed by external stimuli such as film, tv-shows, video games, and various other forms of media. This greatly increases one's suspension of disbelief, suppresses one's memory of the "outside world", and allows one to become engaged on a level that is largely unattainable during everyday sober living.

Motivation enhancement
Motivation enhancement can be described as an increased desire to perform tasks and accomplish goals in a productive manner. It can be best characterized as an increased desire to perform tasks, including those that would normally be considered too monotonous or overwhelming to fully commit oneself to. This effect will often synergize with other coinciding effects such as focus enhancement, thought acceleration, and stimulation in a manner which further increases one's productivity.

Memory enhancement
Memory enhancement can be described as an effect which results in an improved ability to recall and retain memories. The experience of this effect can make it significantly easier for a person to access past memories and recall them at a greater level of detail compared to their sober state. It can also help one retain new information that may then be more easily recalled once the person is no longer under the influence of the substance.
 
Dream potentiation
Dream potentiation can be described as a cognitive component which increases the intensity, vividness and frequency of sleeping dream states. This effect also results in dreams having a higher level of detail and definition alongside a greatly increased likelihood of them becoming lucid.
