Psi and Emotion

This event features notable speakers discussing the interplay between psi phenomena and emotions at the 7th Bial Symposium held on March 28, 2008. Key topics include anomalous correlations like telepathy and precognition, backed by empirical research and case studies. The symposium aims to bridge the controversial aspects of parapsychology with scientific methodology, addressing emotional biases in reporting and the implications of altered states of consciousness. Join us for a comprehensive exploration of these captivating concepts guided by Daryl Bem, Stefan Schmidt, Roger Nelson, and Dean Radin.

  2. Study of Psi: Parapsychology, ‘the controversial science’ • Controversial because of the topic: • Anomalous correlations between minds and/or matter (telepathy, precognition,psychokinesis…. ) • Science because of the method: • Initially Case studies (natural observations) • Empirical (lab) studies • Theory ->hypothesis ->testing ->new theory-> etc.etc. • Role of the experimenter-psi special

  3. Emotion and Psi • Case Studies • Reported cases always are emotional • But: Reporting bias • False memories • Incorrect perception • Empirical research • Manipulation of emotionality of material (Bem, Radin) • Correlation with spontaneous emotional events (Nelson) • Altered states of Consciousness and emotion regulation (Schmidt)

  4. Most controversial • A-causal or retro-causal phenomena • Effects preceding ‘cause’ e.g. emotional events: Bem & Radin • NOT in conflict with physics • The physics of consciousness?
