AREAS OF RESEARCH
Physical effects
 Stimulation - The stimulation which noopept presents can be considered as primarily subtle and encouraged rather than forceful and distinct.
Spontaneous physical sensations - The "body high" which noopept presents can be described as a faint, all-encompassing, soft and consistent tingling sensation.
 
Visual effects
Acuity enhancement
Acuity enhancement is defined as an enhancement of the acuteness or clearness of vision. This results in the visual details attributed to the external environment becoming heightened to the point where the edges of objects become perceived as extremely focused, clear and defined.
Colour enhancement - Some anecdotal reports state that it makes colours appear more vibrant.
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.
Cognitive effects
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.
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.
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.
Thought acceleration
Thought acceleration can be described as the mental process of thought being sped up significantly in comparison to that of normal sobriety. When experiencing this effect, it will often feel as if one rapid fire thought after the other is being generated in incredibly quick succession.
Thought acceleration will often synergize with other coinciding effects such as analysis enhancement and stimulation in a manner which not only increases the speed of thought, but also signifigantly enhances the sharpness of a person's mental clarity.
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.
Rejuvenation
Rejuvenation can be described as feelings of mild to extreme cognitive refreshment which can last anywhere from several hours to many years and are often felt after positive experiences with certain compounds. These feelings of rejuvenation can potentially include a sustained sense of general heightened mental clarity, increased emotional stability and calmness alongside of specific subjective effect components such as mindfulness, increased motivation, personal bias suppression and increased focus.
