Journal of Parapsychology
by Carlos S. Alvarado
The
Journal of Parapsychology is one of the most important parapsychology journals of the modern era. It was founded in 1937 by JB Rhine’s research group at Duke University, and has continued to be published to the present day by the group’s descendants. The journal has been mainly identified with experimental reports, but its content also includes research of spontaneous psychic cases, historical papers, critiques and literature reviews.

Dreams and Past-Life Memory
by James G Matlock
Apparent past-life memories may surface in the dreams of both children and adults. Children’s dreams frequently take the form of nightmares or night terrors and may be only one aspect of a reincarnation case. The past-life dreams of adults by contrast may be the most prominent feature of a case. Although occasionally the dreams alone convey enough information for the previous life to be identified, generally they do not. When cases are solved, it often becomes clear that the dreams include distortions of various kinds.

In a new blog post, Carlos S. Alvarado praises the Psi Encyclopedia and Robert McLuhan's work on it, and suggests it would be useful if an editorial board representing different areas of parapsychology were appointed to suggest further amendments. He mentions some specific ways in which he thinks the Encyclopedia could be improved:
