Research Program / Claims / telepathy-3

Telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and remote viewing are not essentially different; the difference arises from an inadequate understanding of the nature of time.

心电感应与千里眼、预知、透视在本质上并无差别,差别源于对时间本质的不充分理解。

This program treats the Seth Material as a source of hypotheses, not as doctrine to be validated. Lead dossiers are AI-compiled from the corpus with a book-and-session citation after every statement; literature reviews are AI web-search summaries whose references were all DOI-verified against Crossref; the agenda draft is an AI synthesis. None of it is Seth's original text, and none of it represents scientific consensus. English fields are machine-translated; the Chinese text is authoritative.

Adjudicating experiment
Approximately 1200 participants across centers complete three types of matching tasks: targets already generated and viewed by someone, targets already generated but not viewed, and targets generated only after responses are sealed. At least 40 trials per category, over 18–24 months. Standardize stimuli, four-alternative scoring, and feedback. Preregister effects relative to chance for each category, test–retest reliability, latent variables, and equivalence analyses. Only if each task first shows a replicable signal can common mechanisms be discussed; three null effects or insignificant differences cannot prove essential identity. A quantitative model of time intervals must be proposed to test the 'inadequate understanding of time' explanation.
Suggested paper title
Testing Shared and Distinct Components of Target Identification Across Information Availability and Temporal Order
What it would overturn
If responses reliably predict targets that are independently randomly generated after they are sealed, it would revise the temporal-causal hypothesis that future random events cannot provide usable information to prior behavior.

Specificity of Seth's formulation
It suggests a direction of unity but does not specify which operations should yield identical effects or what temporal function applies; the current wording cannot exclude multiple independent mechanisms.
Note
Remote observation, occluded-target identification, and future-target prediction should be operationalized separately; cross-task correlations may arise from common scoring bias or individual response styles.
