Social Influence On Paranormal Beliefs, Barry N. Markovsky, Shane R. Thye Apr 2001

Social Influence On Paranormal Beliefs, Barry N. Markovsky, Shane R. Thye

Faculty Publications

In spite of strong public expressions of skepticism from the scientific community, polls show that more than nine out of ten American adults profess belief in paranormal phenomena. Some scientists view this as a social problem, directing much blame (but little research) at a variety of sources including lack of critical thinking skills, fads, need for transcendent experiences, failure of the educational system, and cultural cycles.

In this study, subjects in a laboratory experiment were informed that some …

Early Geology Books, University Libraries--University Of South Carolina Mar 2001

Early Geology Books, University Libraries--University Of South Carolina

Rare Books & Special Collections Publications

This catalog is based on items displayed in early March 2001, for a class visit by Professor Pradeep Talwani’s undergraduate honors-college course in Solid Earth Geology. Most of the books have been in the library since the early 19th century, and some were among the books of Thomas Cooper (1759-1839), professor of chemistry and second president of South Carolina College (now the University of South Carolina). These earlier acquisitions have been joined by items of geological interest in the C. Warren Irvin, Jr., Collection of Charles Darwin & Darwinana, donated to the library in 1996.
