Twitter Experiment Probes Belief In Remote Viewing

Hey guys

Have you heard about the Twitter experiment, conducted in early June 2009, by psychology professor Richard Wiseman from the University of Hertfordshire in the UK?

Wiseman used more than 7,000 volunteers via Twitter to try to use ESP to determine his location. During the four-day experiment, in each of several exercises, he posted five photographs of locations. Four locations were decoys and one was the actual place where he was located. Curious to know more? Have a look at the article below :)

Twitter experiment casts doubt on psychic 'remote viewing'

A psychic experiment conducted on Twitter has cast doubt on the reality of the ability of "remote viewing".

More than 7,000 people took part in the study designed to test people's ability to "see" distant locations.

During the 1970s the CIA spent £12.5 million looking into remote viewing with a view to conducting "psychic spying" missions against the Soviet Union.

But the "Twitter" experiment led by psychologist Professor Richard Wiseman, from the University of Hertfordshire, found no evidence that such an ability exists.

During the study, the first to be carried out via the instant messaging service, Prof Wiseman travelled to four target locations in the UK and asked participants to "Tweet" their thoughts and impressions about the spot he was visiting.

Volunteers were then messaged with the address of a website on which they could see photographs of five locations – the target location and four decoys.

    This "experiment" has been debunked by the International RV Association. Read the official statement at irva.org

    "Men Who Sleep with Goats" might have done more harm to the RV rep since it presents "super-psychics" as wackos. BTW: I've been documenting my experience of the ARVARI RV Course.
