This research offers a new perspective on how the brain might suppress innate psi abilities, potentially revolutionizing our understanding of these elusive phenomena.

Summary: Researchers proposed a groundbreaking model in the study of psi phenomena, suggesting the human brain functions as a psi-inhibitory filter. They used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to temporarily inhibit the left medial middle frontal region in healthy individuals, observing significant psi effects as a result.

The study reveals that individuals with neurological or rTMS-induced frontal lesions show enhanced mind-matter interaction abilities. This research offers a new perspective on how the brain might suppress innate psi abilities, potentially revolutionizing our understanding of these elusive phenomena.

Key Facts:

  • The study hypothesizes that the human brain acts as a filter suppressing innate psi abilities.

  • rTMS-induced lesions in the left medial middle frontal region led to significant psi effects.

  • This research could fundamentally change how psi phenomena are understood and studied.

These findings support the concept that the brain serves as a filter to block psi effects and may help explain why these effects are so small and hard to replicate in healthy participants.
