Ganzfeld experiment, how liable is it?

[draqon]

A ganzfeld experiment (from the German for “entire field”) is a technique used in the field of parapsychology to test individuals for extra-sensory perception (ESP). It uses homogeneous and unpatterned sensory stimulation to produce an effect similar to sensory deprivation.[1] The deprivation of patterned sensory input is said to be conducive to inwardly-generated impressions.[2] The technique was devised by Wolfgang Metzger in the 1930s as part of his investigation into the gestalt theory.[3]

Parapsychologists such as Dean Radin and Daryl J. Bem say that ganzfeld experiments have yielded results that deviate from randomness to a significant degree, and that these results present some of the strongest quantifiable evidence for telepathy to date.

What exactly is Ganzfeld experiment?

A person is seated in a comfy chair, two halfed-ping pong balls are put over his eyes, and red light is shined all around the room and into the eyes. The person than wears headphones which emit "white noise" which is basically static.

Because of red uniform color of the room the brain turns off the eyes and person sees darkness. The white noise also makes the person deaf as long as the white noise is on.

In this sensory deprivation, the person last for an hour, after which the scientist in another room views an image and thinks about this image, than the person who is under the experiment is supposed to say outloud what he sees exactly.
