…argued that Stevenson selectively chose which of Imad’s statements to credit but Barros (2004) showed that the identification of Ibrahim Bouhamzy did not rest on Imad’s parents’ mistaken inferences (Matlock, 2019, 105-6).Furthermore, re-examining his notes, Stevenson realized that Imad had never actually said the truck accident happened to him. In…
Public understanding of parapsychology has depended not only on experiments and case reports, but on skilled interpreters who bring difficult subjects to wider audiences. Broadcasting, interviewing and synthesis have made Jeffrey Mishlove especially influential in presenting survival research, consciousness studies and psychical ideas to the public. As host of the…
…is also working on “Hidden and Fragmented Mind and the Society for Psychical Research, 1882-1900,” a project that was initiated by Alvarado early in his career, and on which he was working from 2019 to the fall of 2020, when he fell ill. This project, funded by the Parapsychology Foundation…
Psi research in Asia and Australia has developed through a mix of local traditions, small laboratories, individual investigators and regional institutes over many decades. The record ranges from Australian ESP work and Japanese healing studies to Chinese macro-PK research and Indian contributions to reincarnation and consciousness studies. Australia alone spans…
Glenn Hitchman is a psychologist and parapsychologist based at the University of Northampton in the UK. His research has ranged cross implicit precognition, floatation-tank methods for eliciting ESP, ganzfeld participant selection and tests of morphic resonance, with results that are mixed but methodologically informative. Hitchman’s implicit precognition studies found only…
…Speech-Language-Hearing Association characterizes FC as discredited; it specifically warns against RPM due to lack of supporting evidence. The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, American Psychological Association, and American Academy of Pediatrics have similarly published position statements against the use of these methods. A 2019 systematic review on RPM…
…expected by chance (p = 0.03).2Roe et al. (2018). In 2019 Saunders received a Perrott-Warrick grant for a dream ESP study exploring lucid dreams and their potential for precognitive content. Clinical Parapsychology Despite being relatively common, paranormal experiences are poorly understood and can be a source of distress for the…
Contemporary consciousness research sometimes approaches psi through neuroscience, online screening and healing studies rather than through older card-guessing paradigms alone. Arnaud Delorme, working across the US and France, has examined mediumship, biofield effects, perception and candidate selection in an effort to connect anomalous claims with measurable brain and behavioural data….
Recent psi research increasingly meets neuroscience on its own ground, using EEG, physiological recording and tightly structured laboratory tasks. Cédric Cannard represents this newer style of work, moving between altered states, presentiment, telephone telepathy and other anomalous claims while asking what measurable brain and bodily signatures, if any, accompany them….
