“Welcome to the Koestler Parapsychology Unit website.
Established in 1985, we are based in the Psychology Department at the University of Edinburgh, teaching and researching parapsychology. Our work examines:
– the possible existence of psychic ability
– anomalous experiences and belief in the paranormal
– deception and self-deception
– historical and conceptual issues in parapsychology.
We also run a registry for parapsychological studies.
We invite you to explore the site and discover more about our work. And do check out Prof Peter Lamont’s The Faculty of Wonder substack.”
Caroline Watt, Emeritus Professor of Parapsychology; author of Parapsychology: A Beginner’s Guide (#commission earned from link)
