Summary Introduction

Concept introduction

Most people believe in the possibility of ESP, including some psychologists. But even those psychologists who accept ESP as a possibility still recognize the need for evidence that meets the requirements of the scientific method; however, up to this point, replication of ESP research has proven elusive.
