"Journal of Nervous & Mental Disease" publica segundo artigo da pesquisa sobre as cartas psicografadas por Chico Xavier |
 Geraldo Lemos Neto e um dos originais psicografados por Chico Xavier Acaba de sair o segundo artigo da pesquisa UFJF-USP sobre as cartas psicografadas por Chico Xavier. Publicado no "Journal of Nervous & Mental Disease", a mais antiga revista de psiquiatra do mundo. Os 29 itens de informação da carta analisada eram corretos e 14 desses itens eram informações privadas. As explicações comuns (fraude, acaso e vazamento de informação) são pouco prováveis neste caso para explicar a totalidade das informações. Segue o resumo do artigo: "The scientific study of mediumshipcan contribute to the understanding of the mind-brain relationship. This study investigated a letter written by the influential Brazilian “medium” Chico Xavier, whose authorship was attributed to a deceased person. We identified the letter's pieces of information that were objectively verifiable, and we analyzed their accuracy based on documents and on interviews with the deceased's relatives, and the likelihood of Xavier's access to the information via ordinary means. All the 29 items of verifiable information conveyed on the letter were rated as “clear and precise fit.” The information conveyed was highly specific (e.g., names, dates, and specific events). Fourteen items (48.3%) conveyed information that was also very private. We concluded that ordinary explanations for accuracy of the information (i.e., fraud, chance, information leakage, and cold reading) were highly unlikely. We recommend further research on the phenomenon of mediumistic writing, particularly experimental controlled studies with exceptionally gifted mediums." *PROSER, Institute of Psychiatry, School of Medicine, University of São Paulo, São Paulo; and †NUPES–Research Center in Spiritualityand Health, School of Medicine, Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, Juiz de Fora, Brazil.
