Oh, so researching an interesting phenomenon, that is <i></i>already<i></i> cited in journals is somehow &quot;not science&quot;? I&#x27;d be careful about letting your own biases affect you negatively.<p>Simply put, there may or may be nothing there. With diagnostic methods and feedback from the person, we can start to determine if there is a measurable effect. If there&#x27;s something there, we research further. If not, we cite it as proof &quot;no noticeable effect&quot;. This also goes to show that we (academic community) should be much more accepting of papers showing &quot;No Effect&quot;, rather than only positive papers. Knowing the landmines that others went down is just as valuable as what works.<p>But in actuality, I was also giving on-topic discussion about where those phenomena are discussed at length: in studies on occultism. That&#x27;s just a factual statement with no value proposition. Whomever is more interested can do their own research, with this topic in mind.
