Category:Parapsychology



Parapsychology (Greek: παρά "para" [alongside] + "psychology") is a science dedicated to study of psychic abilities, specifically extrasensory perception (ESP), psychokinesis (PK), and, to a lesser extent, near-death and reincarnation experience (continuity of the spirit or self). As psychology studies the internal being of mind (or soul), parapsychology might be said to study the external manifestation of mind.

This category, and the subcategories contained, will detail and provide resources for our research into the specific areas covered by scientific parapsychology (as defined above). Topics such as ghosts or spirit contacts will be covered under Spiritism, and ufo or ET contacts under Ufology.
