The Shadow

Author: Craig Malone

Parapsychology is the study of supernatural events including
esp, consciousness after death, and the ability to see through
objects. The science can help you answer the question - am I
psychic? It can help you whether or not you are clairvoyant and
whether or not you have psychic ability.

Parapsychology is often referred to as a pseudo science, even
though it is studied by the military. Experiments conducted by
parapsychologists have included the use of random number
generators to test for evidence of being able to predict the
future. The random generator configures the numbers and the
psychics must guess what the next number is going to be.

Parapsychology is also tested using sensory-deprivation
experiments. These are called Mansfield experiments. These are
used to test for extrasensory perception and research trials.
The reason that these are considered to be so useful is that
they are conducted under contract to the United States
government to investigate the possibility of remote viewing.

In remote viewing experiments, the psychic ability of a person
is tested around their ability to see far into the future.
Remote viewing experiments test the ability to gather
information on a remote target consisting of an object, place,
or person that is hidden from the physical perception of the
viewer and typically separated from the viewer at some distance.
In one type of remote viewing experiment, a pool of several
hundred photographs is created. One of these is randomly
selected by a third party to be the target. It is then set-aside
in a remote location. The remote viewer attempts to sketch or
otherwise describe that remote target photo.

Ganzield is a technique used to test individuals for telepathy.
The technique was developed to quickly quiet mental “noise” by
providing a visual and auditory environment. Isolating the
visual sense is usually achieved by creating a soft red glow
provided by half ping-pong balls attached to the recipient’s
eyes.

Parapsychologists study all different kinds of different
paranormal phenomena, including:

Telepathy - the transfer of information through the mind using
only the power of thought

Precognition - the ability to foretell the future

Clairvoyance - the ability to obtain information about events or
places at remote locations

Psycho kinesis - the ability of the mind to influence energy,
matter, or time

Reincarnation - the rebirth of the soul after death to live
another life

Hauntings - This type of phenomena is often attributed to ghosts
and the otherworldly activity is often associated with a
person’s abode or belongings.

Parapscyhologists also help develop tests to measure the success
of these psychic experiments. There are a lot of critics of
parapsychologists. Many of them believe that sloppy research
methods and flaws in methodology prevent the findings from being
accurate.

So what constitutes a psychic in the end? Most parapsychologists
define it in the end, as the ability is the person that does
better than chance when it comes to determining the outcome of
something like the throw of dice.
