Probing the minds of Alien Abductees
Are extraterrestrials really abducting people and conducting experiments on them, or are such reports simply a product of the human mind, a modern myth? Psychologists at Goldsmiths College, University of London, are to about to begin research into this fascinating phenomenon. According to Professor Chris French, Head of the Anomalistic Psychology Research Unit (APRU) at Goldsmiths' Psychology Department, which will undertake the research: "Abductees report a wide range of experiences; the research project aims to test not only the psychological aspects of the abduction experience, but also to find out more about the other kinds of experiences that abductees report, and includes some tests for psychic abilities."
Comment from the editor:
That this study recognizes and seeks to understand these factors is a significant advancement in alien encounter research. In the past, other studies have discounted these factors or even used them as evidence that the people were fantasy prone, rather than considering that alien encounters may be a part of a greater range of extraordinary phenomena. Professor French and his colleagues are to be commended for initiating a study that will take in a larger view.Click to read more
