  • Communicating the Intangible

    Carl D Williams, Diane Dutton et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research in Psychology2010Citada por: 1Referências: 6

    The field of “energy medicine” is showing high levels of growth in the West in spite of the controversial nature of “psychic” or “subtle energy.” Proponents of energy medicine contend that techniques such as Thought Field Therapy (TFT) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) have been shown to be particularly efficacious in treating phobias, post traumatic stress and influencing physiological processes (e.g., Callahan 2001a Callahan, RJ. 2001a. Rai…

  • A view from the bridge

    Diane Dutton, Carl Williams et al.ARTICLEAnthrozoös2004Citada por: 3Referências: 33

    In contemporary discussions of animal mind the difficulty of studying the nature of private, subjective awareness in animals is often seen as a barrier to a fuller understanding of animal experience. Relatively little work has focused on more recent psychological accounts of mind that emphasize its extended, embodied and social aspects. We examine some of the main conceptual difficulties in this area, and then consider a number of more embodied a…

  • Computer Problems

    Open AccessJezz Fox, Carl Williams et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2001

    To examine the popular notion that some people are 'jinxed' when using computers 111 undergraduate psychology students were 'jinxed' whilst trying to complete a task over the Internet. No evidence was found to support that notion

  • Paranormal Belief, Experience, and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter

    Open AccessJezz Fox, Carl Williams et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2000

    121 college students completed the Anomalous Experience Inventory and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter. Multiple regression analyses provided significant models predicting both Paranormal Experience and Belief; the main predictors were the other subscales of the Anomalous Experience Inventory with the Keirsey variables playing only a minor role

  • Relation of Tolerance of Ambiguity to Global and Specific Paranormal Experience

    Open AccessJames Houran, Carl Williams et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1998

    We examined the relationship of tolerance of ambiguity to severe global factors and specific types of anomalous or paranormal experience. 107 undergraduate students completed MacDonald's 1970 AT-20 and the Anomalous Experiences Inventory of Kumar, Pekala, and Gallagher. Scores on the five subscales of the Anomalous Experiences Inventory correlated differently with tolerance of ambiguity. Global paranormal beliefs, abilities, experiences, and drug…

  • Humphreys' “Acquisition and Extinction of Verbal Expectations” Revisited

    Open AccessCarl D Williams, Raymond E HartleyARTICLEPsychological Reports1982

    The present study employed the sequential prediction task to determine whether the partial reinforcement hump effect—a rise in the dependent variable curve following partial reinforcement—is a reliable phenomenon. 210 college students received one of seven sequences in which two events occurred equally often for 100 trials and in which the maximum run length was 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8, followed by 30 trials during which one event was always corre…

  • A Three-Element Model for Binary Prediction

    Open AccessRaymond E Hartley, Carl D WilliamsARTICLEPsychological Reports1970

    600 Ss received 1 of 4 100-trial, 2-alternative, 50%-event sequences. A model incorporating logical, experiential, and error components provided a better description of choice behavior on these four event schedules than an alternative model. The data suggest that each element of the model presented in this paper plays an important role in choice behavior

  • Effect of Induced Stress on Convergent and Divergent Thinking

    Open AccessHarry Krop, Harry D Krop et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1969

    Measures of convergent and divergent thinking were obtained from college students before and after the presentation of either a disturbing motion picture film or a benign control film. Induced stress was found to inhibit divergent thinking but to have no effect on convergent thinking. The data suggest that certain intellectual abilities are influenced more readily than others by psychological stress
