Summary: Researchers proposed a groundbreaking model in the study of psi phenomena, suggesting the human brain functions as a psi-inhibitory filter. They used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to temporarily inhibit the left medial middle frontal region in healthy individuals, observing significant psi effects as a result.

The study reveals that individuals with neurological or rTMS-induced frontal lesions show enhanced mind-matter interaction abilities. This research offers a new perspective on how the brain might suppress innate psi abilities, potentially revolutionizing our understanding of these elusive phenomena.

Key Facts:

  • The study hypothesizes that the human brain acts as a filter suppressing innate psi abilities.

  • rTMS-induced lesions in the left medial middle frontal region led to significant psi effects.

  • This research could fundamentally change how psi phenomena are understood and studied.

These findings support the concept that the brain serves as a filter to block psi effects and may help explain why these effects are so small and hard to replicate in healthy participants.

Seems pseudoscience-y, the concept of "psi" is discussed in very nonspecific terms and the connection of the results of the experiment to their findings seems tenuous at best. Not to mention the egregiously clickbait-y article title.

The above article links to the actual study which was released pre-print back in 2024

The tabloid rags over in this part of the world recently ran with the headline 'Scientists discover all humans can read minds.'

Scientists have discovered how to unlock telepathic abilities they say are trapped inside the brains of every human.

Choose your click bait wisely ..ha ha 🤫😁😁
