The psychology of the psychic
Briefly

In a public demonstration exploring anomalistic psychology, I engage the audience by attempting to communicate telepathically, revealing the psychology behind perceived paranormal experiences.
The demonstration aims to illustrate skepticism, showing that when asked to guess a number, the audience often responds accurately due to cognitive biases and common choices.
By guiding participants towards specific number ranges, I highlight how social and psychological factors influence their guesses, rather than any real psychic ability.
This interactive experiment serves to debunk paranormal claims while encouraging critical thinking, showcasing how the illusion of telepathy can arise from collective thought patterns.
