Is Biological Death Final? Recomputing the Drake-S Equation for Postmortem Survival of Consciousness

چکیده
This participatory team science project extended Laythe and Houran’s (2022) prior application of a famous probabilistic argument known as the "Drake equation" to question postmortem survival. Specifically, we evaluated effect sizes from peer-reviewed, empirical studies determine maximum average percentage that ostensibly supports (i.e., "anomalous effects") or refutes "known confounds") survival hypothesis. But unlike earlier application, this research included study-specific estimate hypothesized variable "living agent psi" via new meta-analysis (N = 17) with exceptional subjects vs participants general population. Our updated analysis found putative psi was meaningful variable, although it along other confounds still did not account for 30.3% survival-related phenomena appear attest directly human consciousness continuing after physical (biological) death. Thus, popular conventional variables measured here are seemingly insufficient sizable portion purported data has been interpreted evidence conclusion is nonetheless tempered by several assumptions limitations our speculative exercise, which ultimately does affirm existence an ‘afterlife’ but rather highlights need measurements greater precision and/ more comprehensive set quantifiable variables. Therefore, discuss how approach provides important heuristics guide future in highly controversial domain touches both parapsychology transpersonal psychology.

The temporal aspect of the drake equation and SETI.
We critically investigate some evolutionary aspects of the famous Drake equation, which is usually presented as the central guide for research on extraterrestrial intelligence. It is shown that the Drake equation tacitly relies on unverified assumptions on both the physicochemical history of our galaxy and the properties of advanced intelligent communities. In this manner, the conventional appr...
