NOTE

Replicate, Record, and Reveal

Replicating findings in scientific research is crucial, yet the pressure to conform to initial hypotheses can lead to overlooking significant extraneous results. Often, researchers dismiss unexpected data due to a lack of alignment with their original objectives, which can contribute to a problematic trend known as the 'file drawer problem'—the tendency to ignore or not publish negative findings. This practice hampers the overall understanding of complex phenomena, such as precognition, which can emerge unexpectedly during research. Acknowledging and publishing these unexpected findings are essential in fields like biofield science, where the understanding of new concepts is still developing. By embracing the full spectrum of results, researchers can contribute more meaningfully to the scientific discourse.
