The term '''parapsychology''' (also known as ''psi'' phenomena) was coined in or around 1889 by philosopher [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Dessoir Max Dessoir], and originates from ''para'' meaning "alongside", and [[psychology]]. The term was adopted by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J.B._Rhine J.B. Rhine] in the 1930s as a replacement for the term psychical research. Parapsychologists [[study]] a number of ostensibly paranormal [[phenomena]], including [[telepathy]], precognition, [[clairvoyance]], psychokinesis, [[near-death experiences]], [[reincarnation]] and [[apparition]]al experiences.

Parapsychology [[research]] is conducted in some 30 different countries. [[Laboratory]] and field research is conducted through private [[institutions]] and [[universities]]. Privately funded units in [[psychology]] departments at universities in the United Kingdom are among the most active today. In the [[United States]], interest in research peaked in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970's 1970s] and university-based research has declined since then, although private institutions still receive funding from donations. While parapsychological research has occasionally appeared in [[mainstream]] academic journals, most of the recent research is published in a small number of [[niche]] journals. Journals dealing with parapsychology include the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_Parapsychology Journal of Parapsychology], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_Near-Death_Studies Journal of Near-Death Studies], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_Consciousness_Studies Journal of Consciousness Studies], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_the_Society_for_Psychical_Research Journal of the Society for Psychical Research] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_of_Scientific_Exploration Journal of Scientific Exploration].
