3 Question about science

3 Question about science

1.How might the constructive nature of your perceptions, your state of mind, your emotions and your beliefs, play a role in what you experience while you’re walking at night through a graveyard said to be visited by spirits of the dead?

2.How does critical thinking impact the decisions you make? How do these decisions eventually affect your quality of life? Do you think this class has made you a better critical thinker? Why or why not?

3.“You may not believe you have psi abilities. However, you are simply not aware of the many fatal accidents you have unwittingly avoided because of your unconscious ability to predict the future. Indeed, the fact that you are alive today is evidence for psi!” Discuss any logical or scientific flaws in this argument. Is this a testable hypothesis? Why or why not?

Quote in Question 3 is taken from Smith, J. C. (2010). Pseudoscience and extraordinary claims of the paranormal: A critical thinkers toolkit. Malden, MA: Wiley-Blackwell.
