I have a particular interest in the use of research methodologies and statistical analyses in order to reach a broader understanding of normal and anomalistic psychology. I have published in a number of major peer-reviewed journals, including: Psychological Bulletin, Journal of Scientific Exploration, Explore: The Journal of Science and Healing, Journal of Parapsychology, Australian Journal of Parapsychology, Journal of Gambling Studies, International Journal of Jungian Studies, International Journal of Existential Psychology and Psychotherapy, International Journal of Dream Research, and Quadrant. I am a committee member of the Australian Institute of Parapsychological Research, Inc., of whose journal the Australian Journal of Parapsychology I am Chief Editor. I am the author of "The Enigma of Numbers" (2008), and co-author (with Dr. Adam J. Rock) of Shamanism and Psi (2011). I co-edited two books with Dr. M. A. Thalbourne, "Parapsychology in the Twenty-First Century" (2005), and "The Survival of Human Consciousness" (2006); and I edited the book "Synchronicity: Multiple Perspectives on Meaningful Coincidence" (2008).

Past and present psychological interests include:

  • Anomalistic psychology;
  • Spiritual Emergency, emergence, and psychosis;
  • Jungian (Analytical) Psychology;
  • Gambling behaviour, attitudes towards gambling, and belief in good luck;
  • Theories on perception, personality and therapy.

Research Project 1

Title: The Effects of Imagery-Cultivation on Mood and Psi Performance

Project description: There is evidence that Imagery Cultivation (IC; Storm & Rock, 2009b) can induce a psi-conducive altered state of consciousness. However, little is known about mood changes of psi test participants under the IC condition. Thsi study has two aims: (1) to determine if there is a difference between the IC condition and a control condition with regards to: (a) psi performance; and (b) mood, as measured on the Profile of Mood States (POMS; McNair, Lorr, & Droppleman, 1971); and (2) to determine if there is a relationship between the POMS variables and psi performance.

Project available for: Honours

Location: School of Psychology (Hughes Building, North Tce)

Research project start: Semester 1 and 2

Special requirements: Bachelor of Psychological Science, or equivalent major in Psychology

 

Research Project 2

Title: The Effects of Imagery-Cultivation on Phenomenological and Paranormal Experience
 

Project description: There is evidence that Imagery Cultivation (IC; Storm & Rock, 2009b) can induce a psi-conducive altered state of consciousness. However, little is known about the phenomenology (subjective experience) of psi test participants under the IC condition. This study has two aims: (1) to determine if there is a difference between the IC condition and a control condition with regards to: (a) psi performance; and (b) phenomenology using the Phenomenology of Consciousness Inventory (PCI; Pekala, 1991); and (2) to determine if there is a relationship between the PCI dimensions and psi performance.
