…after discussing potential psychokinesis influences with a gambler, developed a PK program using dice as targets, with testing carried out over several years. Absolute effect sizes were very small, but they survived increasingly sophisticated control measures such as using automatic tumbling machines and photographic recording of faces. When JB Rhine…
…need not require conscious knowledge of the information to which psi-driven action is responding. Indeed, an adaptive or disposition-affirming outcome orchestrated by implicit (that is, unconscious, automatically processed) psi or sensory information often might be the most efficient way to move the organism away from a threat or toward a…
…PRL Publication Vulnerability to fraud and flaws was greatly reduced by a procedure known as the automatic ganzfeld, or autoganzfeld, that was subsequently developed by Honorton and colleagues at the Psychophysical Research Laboratory (PRL), a parapsychological research organisation founded in 1979 in Princeton, New Jersey, of which he was director.21Honorton,…
…received from Lees an automatic script appearing to originate with the deceased Albert, which mentioned a pet name and other intimate details known only to the couple.5Brennan (2013), 207.Lees attended her on numerous occasions at Windsor and was rewarded with a pension from the royal estate.6Cited in West (1949), 77….
…t-score difference of 4.74 (p = 1 x 10^-6). Cat-observed primes showed minimal effects (10.83ms difference), significantly less than human-observed conditions (t-difference = 5.37, p = 4.9 x 10^-8). The analysis excluded two unpublished experiments: one using directional arrows that showed equal effects across conditions (attributed to automatic motor responses),…
…acted as participants in their own experiments across thirty-two trials. The three kept detailed dream diaries, which they completed at the end of each trial night. In the morning at the laboratory, the software automatically selected four targets at random and presented them on the screen. Targets were ranked by…
…91; Pagenstecher (1924), 801. The human brain, he speculated, can ‘register, preserve and reproduce at will whatever vibration it has been affected by during its existence’. The ‘associated object’ acts like a ‘tuning fork’, automatically triggering in the psychometrist’s brain vibrations that correspond to some event associated with it in…
…refers specifically to unexpected lucid episodes in people with severe neurodegenerative brain conditions that are deemed to be irreversible, such as in the examples above (e.g., advanced Alzheimer’s disease).9Mashour et al. (2019). However, because such episodes can also occur many weeks or months before death, paradoxical lucidity does not automatically…
