Center for Psychotronic Studies and Investigations

Welcome to the website of the CPSI. The center was founded in 1990 to provide liable, scientific investigation on various paranormal phenomena. Under ‘paranormal phenomena’ we can classify physical (PK) and mental (ESP) processes that have not yet been explained by our current science. Here, we can think of levitations, clairvoyance and paranormal healings. Also the thanatological investigation is situated in the field of parapsychology. Cryptozoology, forteanism and ufology cannot be captured under the heading ‘parapsychology’, and are therefore not dealt with by the center. Usually, the parapsychological investigation is divided into two main aspects:

Fieldwork;

Experimental Investigation

It is self-evident for the center to try to be active in both area’s. However, a critical approach is necessary, as often, during the investigation, some misleading factors, like for example psychological and sociological influences, seem to surface. The sociologist J.H. Sommer (Spiegel der Parapsychologie, 1998) raises the issue that people can make a prediction come true by behaving accordingly. In that way, a process is initiated that makes the prediction come true. People forget however that they have contributed to this process themselves. This is called a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Organisation

The center does not employ any personnel, as the members take care of all activities themselves on a voluntary basis. The activities consist of the organisation of experiments, investigations, trainings, work meetings, presentations and information evenings. Since the center works with volunteers, they do not ask for compensations when making use of their services. The center is always willing to assist you with : information on parapsychological subjects (e.g. for a thesis), reporting on a paranormal phenomenon taking place in your area, attending or organising a lecture, and finally one can also apply as a candidate-member.
