Also it doesn't appear there will be any way to measure results as the questions are open-ended. But if the goal is to get a bunch of anecdotes which may be interesting, then it may well serve its purpose.

Chris K Inner circle 2545 Posts	Posted: Sep 10, 2019 06:19 pm 1 I'd be curious as to the results, if you are up to sharing them. I'd love to experience anything super natural but, alas, it seems not to be. As such, I am in the "Settled" camp based on all available data. https://xkcd.com/1235/

Some people.... To be clear, it seemed obvious not to fill out the survey in that case. Also, to be clear, the survey has little to no scientific significance because of that type of survey design. But it’s also regarding ghost experiences, so there’s really no scientific part to the whole thing anyway. ¯\|_(ツ)_/¯

That wasn’t the title or the query for this thread. I don’t think IAIN ever said he was doing a scientific study. He simply said if you fancy filling it in, it’s anonymous, thanks for your time. Why do these threads get so far off track so quickly?

That's a very unscientific point of view. You can't prove a negative, so assuming something does not exist is, in itself, an act of faith and thus, unscientific. "Skeptics" are so frequently guilty of this. Christopher Witch Doctor Psycho Seance book: https://tinyurl.com/y873bbr4 Boffo eBook: https://tinyurl.com/387sxkcd

Why do these threads get so far off track so quickly? Absolutely... I think what tends to happen is, is that people focus on their own view point and motivations - and then apply that to what they are reading...so here's some questions - and they immediately apply what they think is going on, and take it from there... i've had all kinds of weird interactions over five very simple questions...

dalo New user 77 Posts	Posted: Sep 14, 2019 11:57 pm 0 I met a woman who made a thesis about ghosts. It was part of her doctoral studies so it was very scientific She was no ghost though so I am not sure it qualifies...
Wravyn Inner circle 3515 Posts	Posted: Sep 27, 2019 05:37 pm 0 Can you share any of the weird interactions?
IAIN Eternal Order england 18807 Posts	Posted: Sep 28, 2019 07:16 am 0 Nope I've asked to be banned
