Efimova, I.Y. Parapsychology: myth or reality?

Abstract: One of unorthodox psychological approaches to phenomenology of conscious is actually given by the science which was the first to try and theoretically explain paranormal phenomena (despite any criticism and skepticism coming from the academic society). Parapsychology (derived from the Greek root “para” meaning “near” or “beside”) is the sphere studying psychic phenomena which cannot be explained by the common physics. The most famous phenomena include telepathy (mental communication between two people when no obvious means of communication are used), clairvoyance (power of getting information on events when no typical ways of receiving knowledge are used), foresight (ability to predict future events) and psychokinesis (faculty of manipulating physical objects by the force of the thought).
