Feeling "Watched"?

Do you ever get the feeling that someone is staring a you from afar? Could the feeling be due to coincidence or subtle sensory cues? To find out, parapsychologists have, since the early 1990s, conducted at least 15 experimental studies that have attempted to reproduce "remote staring detection" under carefully controlled conditions. When combined, the studies reveal a small but statistically significant overall effect, suggesting that there might be something to the ?feeling of being stared at.? But is one artifact still not being controlled for?

I wonder where EMF ties in with this? It is said if you are exposed to high levels of EMF for a certain length of time, it too will give you that sense of being watched.
Sounds interesting...Go on.

I have not been able to find very much scientific documentation on this subject. Most of the studies have been conducted on electrical workers, especially those who work on high power lines for extended periods of time. The EMF coming off those lines is incredibly high. So far I have not been able to find much on long term exposure to low levels of EMF.

That's interesting. I'd like to find out more on this. If you know of any books or articles, lemme know!

Here is a link to the "Resources" section of our site. I have been compiling information and links on the subject, and hope to add more in the near future:

Hope this helps.
