How Psychic is Used
Within parapsychology, Psychic is used exclusively to refer to the transfer of
information that is both contemporary to, and hidden from, the Psychic. It is
differentiated from telepathy in that the information is said to be gained directly
from an external physical source, rather than being transferred from the mind of one
individual to another.
Outside of parapsychology, Psychic is often used to refer to other forms of
Anomalous cognition, most commonly the perception of events that have occurred in
the past, or which will occur in the future (known as retrocognition and
precognition respectively), or to refer to communications with the dead (see
Mediumship).
Clairvoyace is related to remote viewing, although the term “remote viewing” itself
is not as widely applicable to Psychic because it refers to a specific
controlled process.
