Paranormal psychology refers to the partly-pseudoscientific study of how people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are influenced by any claimed phenomenal experience that may usually be classified as paranormal. It is separate from parapsychology in that paranormal psychology simply seeks to observe the behavior and mental processes of those who claim experiences with the general paranormal while parapsychology seeks to prove the existence of specific paranormalities, particularly psychic abilities and life after death, through the scientific method.
