超常現象

维基百科,自由的百科全书

超常現象(英語:Paranormal),又稱靈異現象,是指與科學和常識相互矛盾的現象。因為超常現象無法用已存在的邏輯架構、或普遍被接受的現實知識來解釋。

定義

[编辑]

這些真實性未獲科學實證驗證的現象,通常不被主流的科學家所承認,所以「難以再現」的超常現象被認為是偽科學,有一部分是因為科學是需要能重現、重製的現象加以證實,包含擁有特異功能的人類(預知透視意念顯影),以及在偶然的情況下發生,但無法以常理來說明的事件,例如:圖坦卡門的詛咒、靈異照片等。

也有其他的類似現象被認定為確有其事,卻無法立即解釋,例如,許多人皆曾看過不明飛行物(UFO);但彼此對不明飛行物的解釋卻有很大差異。通古斯大爆炸王恭廠大爆炸是一種明顯且無法否認的超常現象,但是關於爆炸的原因,卻從彗星到超空間撕裂(cross-dimensional rips)等不同解釋。

此外,也有人指出超常(Paranormal)這個詞彙,在過去是被當成是宗教上諸多不可解的神秘現象,相對於自然科學(Natural science)所衍生的超自然(Supernatural)的代換詞彙。

查爾斯·佛特英语Charles Fort指出一些奇怪的、不尋常的現象通常為科學所忽視。

以下是一些超常現象的範例:

有些超常現象最後獲得科學上的解釋,不再是無法解釋的現象。例如,「從天而降的石頭」在以前被認為是超常現象的一種,但「隕石」的存在現在已經是廣為人知的事實。

超自然現象其實算是超常現象的一種,但是其中一部份被當成超心理学parapsychology)來進行研究,並且被分成三種等級:
