Paranormal Psychology

It was difficult to know what to call this page as the study of the paranormal can be approached form more than one perspective. So although I opted for paranormal psychology, I could have also chosen to go with parapsychology or anomalistic psychology.


What is Paranormal Psychology?


To help you understand the terms and definitions surrounding the study of the paranormal watch this very insightful video featuring Anomalistic Psychologist Chris French.

The research unit website is well worth a visit as it offers comprehensive information and resource materials. Make sure you check out the audio and video section as you can watch a series of fascinating guest lecture videos, for example Dr Rupert Sheldrake's talk entitled What if Telepathy Really Happens?

Varieties of Anomalous Experience: Examining the Scientific Evidence by Etzel Cardena, Steven Jay Lynn & Stanley C. Krippner

Book Description

What are the long-term effects of near-death experiences? Why do some people see sounds and taste smells? What happens during an out-of-body experience? These extraordinary and unusual phenomena have often be en ignored or ridiculed by mainstream psychology.

In this fascinating volume, leading scholars explore these areas, as well as experiences of hallucinations, lucid dreams, alien abductions, mysticism, anomalous healings, psi-events and past-lives, in an effort to explain the totality of human experience.

In an accessible style, contributors review and discuss current research about unusual but important events, creating a mesmerizing account of activity at the boundaries of conventional psychology. The chapters examine current research and theories, methodological issues, related psychopathology, individual and cultural differences, aftereffects, and clinical implications of anomalous experiences.
