The Psychic Potential Among Average People: Page 5
The reason for this is that the energy flows throughout the body like water and when you project energy from one hand it creates a deficit in the other hand. For an unknown reason, the person who is being tested will have an energy build up in the wrong hand and a feeling a coolness instead of the normal feeling of heat. To compensate for this, I computed a single sample t-test using the highest number that the participant scored either right or wrong. By doing this, I eliminated the safeties for random effect. The statistic did show itself to be higher than figuring just the correct responses.Another problem is the fact that some people are energy deaf or mute and are completely unable to perceive any psychic energy whatsoever. The only way I can compensate for this factor would be to hold pre-trials to make sure that all participants could perceive energy. It is lucky, however, that random effect does take hold in situations like this and tends to balance them toward the middle and not to any extremes so they will not skew the statistical results in at least the base test. Most of the other problems have to do with whoever is the energy generator. These include fatigue, power spikes, power lags, and lack of focus. Fatigue is caused by the physical strain that creating and expending energy puts on the physical body. Power spikes are where, for an unknown reason, the body creates a spike of energy in the improper hand. This could be compared to a leak in a dam and is usually caused by fatigue. Fatigue and lack of focus also cause power lags. Basically, it is when the researcher is unable to impede the flow of energy to just one hand and both hands experience a drop in energy flow. Thankfully, these can almost all be corrected by simply spacing trials, thus giving the body and mind time to regenerate. Instructions to the participants to ignore very brief and powerful spikes in one hand or the other can also help correct these problems.
