My medium testing protocol I think mediumship research is maybe the strongest potential way to test for Psi. I've been thinking for a while about how to design a test that wouldn't have the terrible flaws that Schwartz's did. I designed this protocol with the goal being that somebody like Wiseman could do it and still get overwhelmingly statistically significant results.
Aight, here it is:
1. A single medium is chosen
2. Six sitters are chosen, each is given a number 1 through 6
3. Medium is instructed to give a 30 minute reading for each sitter which is transcribed. Both the medium and sitter never need to leave their homes or come in contact with eachother.
4. Each sitter is given a copy of all 6 readings. They then have to pick which one is theirs.
If at least 5 of the sitters get it correct then we should try to see if the results can be repeated. Anything less than 5 and we will call the experiment a failure and we can move on to something else.
