Attempt to Replicate Bem's Precognitive Avoidance Task And Detect Relationships With Trait Anxiety

Journal of Consciousness Studies June 1, 2022 Sarika Arora, Mike Schmidt, James Boylan et al.

Previous research suggests anxious individuals demonstrate hypervigilance for threatening stimuli. Recent controversial studies suggested people's bodies (presentiment) and brain (precognition, Bem, 2011; Bem et al., 2015) can 'predict' biologically salient events, such as threatening stimuli, milliseconds to seconds before they occur. If true, this suggests a possible mechanism for...
