No series run since has been accepted by both sides as meeting it. Two later meta-analyses, Milton and Wiseman in 1999 and Storm, Tressoldi and Di Risio in 2010, reach opposite conclusions on differently defined study pools, so the accumulated literature cannot settle it either.What would resolve this A pre-registered adversarial collaboration with laboratories on both sides of the dispute, an analysis plan agreed and lodged before data collection, and a commitment from all parties to publish whatever results.OpenExperimental psychology; meta-analysis; pre-registration methodologyRay Hyman, Charles Honorton, A Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld ControversyCross-Tradition ConnectionsDiscipline NeededExperimental Psychology, Scholarly Disciplines Well-attested Source A Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld ControversyRay Hyman, Charles Honortontier 1Meta-Analytic Methodology, Scholarly Disciplines Well-attested Source A Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld ControversyRay Hyman, Charles Honortontier 1Pre-Registration Methodology, Scholarly Disciplines Well-attested Source A Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld ControversyRay Hyman, Charles Honortontier 1Question OnThe Autoganzfeld Series, Studies Well-attested Source A Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld ControversyRay Hyman, Charles Honortontier 1SourcesA Joint Communique: The Psi Ganzfeld Controversytier 1Ray Hyman, Charles Honorton, Journal of Parapsychology, Vol. 50, 1986Essays About This Entity (1 essay)Four Experiments Were Each Meant to Settle Something.
