Sup, guys.
I was wondering something; are there any serious studies on toki pona (linguistics, neurosciences, etc)?

Not the peer-reviewed, controlled sort. Sonja mentions some anecdotes and so do a few others here and there in the archives. Mainly about depression or teen-age Angst.

Not true! If you search google scholar, toki pona has been mentioned at least a half dozen times in scholarly journals. Admittedly often just in a list of conlangs, but as you probably found on the wiki, once as a fake language used in an experiment.
