The paper introduces the idea that the human brain may apply complex mathematical modules in order to process and understand the world. We speculate that the substrate of what appears outwardly as intuition, or prophetic power, may be a mathematical apparatus such as time-delay embedding. In this context, predictive accuracy may be the reflection of an appropriate choice of the embedding parame...

The difficulties of being human oblige us to create an infinity of psychic structures to bind or in some way cope with the inevitable physical and mental pain we are going to encounter. We have to start doing this shortly after birth and are only able to do it because of a unique phylogenetic heritage: the capacity for symbolic functioning. Most of our psychic pain is occasioned on the path to ...

The main object of The Law of Psychic Phenomena is, as its somewhat ambitious title indicates, to provide a working hypothesis in the light of which all classes of mental phenomena shall be interpretable. The main proposition of the hypothesis is that man has two minds "subjective" and "objective." Mr. Hudson affords us no precise definition of the "subjective" mind; but by means of various sca...

This thesis aims to construct, evaluate, and apply a cognitive proto-model which accounts for the trickery involved in the fabrication ofjust one type of psychic ability, namely; macro-PK. This cognitive proto-model describes how an observer analyses a demonstration of ostensible macro-PK. The model accounts for how an observer: construes such phenomena as either a magic trick or a display of g...

A total of 60 patients suffering acute poisoning with a mixture of psychotropic drugs were available for observation. The study focused on comparative estimation of reintegration of psychic conditions (recovery of consciousness, conceptualization of mnestico-intellectual functions) in these patients. It was shown that intensive therapy of toxic and hypoxic brain lesions with antihypoxic agent c...

Over the past few years, within the teams that provide medical-psychological care to people suffering from the psychic sequels of torture in our country, there has been a permanent discussion surrounding certain categories that arise from psychiatric nosography as is the case of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSDA) – that have been put forward as descriptive or interpretative models of the wh...
