Парапсихологија је псеудонаука која претендује да проучава неистражене делове људског ума. У парапсихологију се убрајају још недовољно изтражени феномени: телекинеза, телепатија, емпатија и манипулација енергије. Парапсихологија није призната област у психологији. Велика већина научника сматра да је парапсихологија псеудонаука делом због недостатка поновљивих емпиријских доказа, а делом и зато што низ парапсихолошких тврдњи једноставно не може бити истинит, „осим ако остатак науке није тачан”.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Истраживање парапсихологије углавном спроводе приватне институције у неколико земаља, а финансирају се путем приватних донација,[9][10] и тема се готово никада не појављује у главним научним часописима. Већина радова о парапсихологији објављена је у малом броју споредних часописа.[11][12] Парапсихологија је била критикована због настављања истраге упркос томе што није могла да пружи убедљиве доказе за постојање било каквих психичких појава након више од једног века истраживања.[13][14]
Терминологија
[уреди | уреди извор]Израз парапсихологија сковао је 1889. године филозоф Макс Десуар, као немачка „парапсихологија”.[15][16] Касније га је Џ. Б. Рајн усвојио током 1930-их као замену за термин психичка истраживања како би указао на значајан помак ка експерименталној методологији и академској дисциплини..[17] Израз потиче од грч. παρά para са значењем „поред”, и психологија.
У парапсихологији, psi је непознати фактор екстрасензорне перцепције и психокинетичких искустава који није објашњен познатим физичким или биолошким механизмима.[18][19] Израз је изведен из грчког ψ пси, 23. слова грчке абецеде и почетног слова грчке речи ψυχή psyche, са значењем „ум, душа”.[20][21] Израз је сковао биолог Бертолд П. Виснер, а први пут га је користио психолог Роберт Таулес у чланку из 1942. године објављеном у Британском журналу психологије.[22]

Ordinarily, when experimental evidence fails repeatedly to support a hypothesis, that hypothesis is abandoned. Within parapsychology, however, more than a century of experimentation has failed even to conclusively demonstrate the mere existence of paranormal phenomenon, yet parapsychologists continue to pursue that elusive goal.”
