[ST:TOS] In "Where No Man Has Gone Before," would Spock have been corrupted by that power?

In this episode, two of the crew members are affected by some sort of cosmic force that grants them god-like powers. They fall victim to the old adage that "power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."  Granted, one more than the other, as one ends up ultimately saving the day, but also dying in the process.

They were affected because they had a high ESP potential. Spock, though, is naturally telepathic. I don't know if there's an in-universe explanation as to why he wasn't affected, but that's not my question. My question is, if he had been affected, would his practiced discipline of logic overcome the seduction of power, or would he have fallen prey to it as well? Would he have been a benevolent god-like being or just as much of a devil?

Life in the Federation under the rule of Administrator Spock was a gilded prison. 

Still yet to develop the maturity and balance of his later years, he used dogmatic adherence to logic to repress and deny his human half. He had yet to understand that "logic is only the beginning of wisdom." He installed himself as the most logical choice of Federation President, and later the new position of Prime Administrator, when the checks and balances written for less-evolved beings became illogically restraining. 

Science and technology flourished under his reign, though arts and recreational activities suffered from resource allocation only high enough to prevent a troublesome level of complaints. The M-5 artificial intelligence program under Dr Daystrom was a total success, given the supernatural assistance from Administrator Spock. The robotic Starfleet became the dominant military power of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, as Romulan and Klingon resistance crumbled inevitably but bloodlessly. 

The Romulans invented a series of ever more subtle sign languages based on facial microexpressions and obscure cultural references to try to counter the all-pervasive listening ability of Administrator Spock, but gave up and resigned to their fate, beginning reunification talks six years after the Galactic Barrier incident. Faced with an enemy who could not be defeated, and would not grant them the dignity of death in battle, great sections of the Klingon military committed ritual suicide.

Earth's (and all major human colonies') school curriculum was adapted to concentrate on the teachings of Surak, father of the modern Vulcan way. Jim (formerly Captain) Kirk, in his last conversation with his old friend, speculated as to whether this was Spock projecting his inner conflict on the society as a whole. Jim Kirk was then entrusted with the key position, Ambassador to Tholia, and has not been able to communicate with the the core worlds of the Federation since then.

Some decades later, the Federation was enclosed by an impenetrable red lattice by an even higher power known as Q, after he declared the Federation guilty of squandering their potential for evolution, for not going boldly enough, and generally becoming tediously boring.
