otheruses2 Distancing Distancing is a concept arising from the work of developmental psychologists Heinz Werner psychologist Heinz Werner and Bernard Kaplan . Distancing describes the process by which psychologists help a person establish their own individuality through understanding their separateness from everything around them. This understanding of one s identity is considered an essential phase in coming to terms with symbols, which in turn forms the foundation for full cognition and language. Werner and Kaplan s work was later expanded by the pioneer in deaf blind patient therapy, Dr. Jan Van Dijk , and later refined by the work of Dr. Susan Bruce . Primarily of use in working with deaf blind patients, distancing gradually leads the subject through a course of physical interactions which encourage the patients to respond. At first, responses may be simple repetitions of pleasurable acts, but eventually events that take place in the present tense are replaced in the subject s mind with more complicated concepts, such as desires, requests, or other expressions which reflect symbolic cognition and understanding of past events. As the subject progresses through these stages, he is eventually able to move from communicating his desires simply as in early childhood to more complicated treatment of symbols in communication. Once the communication barrier is removed, more conventional therapies and educational methodologies are then possible. References Werner, H., & Kaplan, B. 1964 .

In psychology , anomalistic psychology is the study of human behaviour and experience connected with what is often called the paranormal , without the assumption that there is anything paranormal involved. On the hypothesis that paranormal explanations do not exist, researchers try to provide plausible non paranormal accounts, supported by empirical evidence, of how psychological and physical factors might combine to give the impression of paranormal activity when, in fact, there had been none. Such explanations might involve cognitive bias es, anomalous psychological states, personality factors, developmental issues, the nature of memory, the psychology of deception and self deception. The reason anomalous experiences are doubted is because it is regarded as a pseudoscience . A pseudoscience is a field of study that masquerades as a science but lacks certain important characteristics. There are features of anomalous research which suggest it is pseudoscientific. The list is adapted from Hines 2003 big Irrefutable hypotheses big The aim of the scientific process is to test hypotheses . It is not possible to prove a hypotheses correct, but you can prove it wrong i.e. falsify it . In some cases, however, this is not possible.
