This book is intended for anyone interested in psychological research, parapsychological topics, and students and teachers who are participating in psychology research methods courses. The book compares and contrasts the methodologies and approaches used by psychological scientists with those used by parapsychologists. In addition to covering the basics of correlational research, experimental research, and statistics, the book also discusses the often-fascinating intersection of psychology and parapsychology throughout history. Among other topics covered, readers will learn of William James’ involvement in a club of paranormal enthusiasts, the oddball world of ghost hunting, and Stanford’s history with psychic experiments. Readers will learn what differentiates science from pseudoscience and hopefully also learn a little about the nature of belief itself.
