Abstract
One of the prevalent conceptions in paranormal beliefs is precognition – the phenomenon of seeing future events. According to a Brazilian survey, around 70% of the general population believes they have had at least one precognitive dream. However, biases can affect how dreams are remembered and interpreted in relation to supposed precognition.
