Cheers mate. Which therapies are likely to appear - Biological or psychological? Any other predictions on questions for Addiction? Cheers

No problem ^_^

Thanks! I wouldn't mind biological or psychological explanations being the question. Or classification of schizo. Don't mean to be a pain but do you know what came up for media in the January paper?:smile:

I've noticed that they ask questions on explanations (coincidence/probability/superstition/magical thinking/personality) EVERY year, sometimes more than once. But haven't asked about the study of anomalous experience(ganzfeld/pk/pseudoscience) or research in to exceptional experience (NDE/OOBE/psychicmediumship/healing) as much...
They haven't asked any questions on psychic healing specifically or near death experience alone yet so that is definitely a possibility. Anomalistic is so difficult to guess for... they seem to throw in quite a few questions which can be beneficial for those of us that are doing it. I know I'm babbling on so I'll stop lol hope this has been even a little helpful.
