Answer to Question 2

Parapsychology is the study of events that cannot be explained by known physical, psychological, or biological mechanisms. Extrasensory perception is the major focus of study in parapsychology, and common phenomena of interest are telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and psychokinesis. Telepathy is the ability to project one's thoughts into the minds of others or to read their minds. Clairvoyance is the perception of events that are not available to the senses. Precognition is the ability to foretell the future. Psychokinesis is the ability to cause objects to move without touching them. Strong scientific evidence for these phenomena is lacking.
