Tony Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Indeed. I didn't mention the ideomotor effect for fear of it being confused with the woowoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValW Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Can't be bothered to read all the pages here, but there've been plenty of tests that show ouija boards are rubbish. If the people using it don't know the answers to the questions, it doesn't work or gets the answers wrong. If the users are properly blindfolded, it doesn't work. That doesn't mean that users are deliberately cheating. The ideomotor effect works without them realizing. If anyone can get it to work any other way, checkout http://www.randi.org and try for the million dollars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
