Passing this on FYI. An interesting PhD dissertation project:
------------------------------
Greetings!!
My name is Heather Schwenn and I am currently recruiting participants for my dissertation study which will allow me to complete my Ph.D in Clinical Psychology at Sofia University in Palo Alto, California. My study is on the phenomenological features and long-term after effects of Out-of-Body Experiences.
This study consists of a survey that will take about an hour of your time and all of the research materials being used are based on the "normal" population unlike most studies in this field which use measures that are based on a psychiatric population. In no way will this study pathologize the participant or the experience.
I need between 100-150 participants who have had: at least one OBE, the first or only OBE would have had to occur at least one year prior to participating in this study, the individual is at least 18 years old and the participant speaks English as a first language . If you are interested in helping me out with this project or you know anyone who fits these qualifications, please pass on this information!!
