mental stimulation and therefore eagerly pick it up in the ganzfeld state. Another possibility is that outgoing types are simply more at ease in the experimental laboratory atmosphere, and therefore can focus more clearly. But don't worry if you're someone who tends toward the shy side: Many introverts have done quite well when allowed to take telepathic tests in the comfort and privacy of their own homes. |

Ganzfeld researchers also use their more sophisticated measuring techniques to report new findings about how telepathy may work. The autoganzfeld tests show that higher hit rates occur when the target images consist of videotaped film sequences rather than still pictures. Are you surprised? Did you think that a moving target would be harder to capture? Researchers suggest that the videotaped images are easier to detect because they offer more information, use both the visual and auditory senses, inspire richer internal images, seem more lifelike, create a narrative structure that is easier for the mind to grasp onto, and evoke emotions. |

Nature's Effects on Telepathy |

When measuring telepathy, scientists have begun to ask whether they need to account for the effects of external forces. That is, could there be forces outside or beyond the mind-to-mind connection that influence how well the information travels? |

Research has found that two natural factors do seem to affect the strength of telepathic messages. These forces are the Earth's magnetic field and the moon's fluctuating phases. In fact, the most recent research suggests that these factors work together to affect people in various ways. |
