Abstract

The first author and his wife discovered that their house-maid had an ability to score at about twice the expected chance rate in ESP card tests. This success was obtained in clairvoyance tests as well as with an agent looking at the cards. The other two authors performed experiments with this subject. They used both kinds of tests and gave special attention to safeguards against sensory cues. Significant results were obtained in the tests in which an agent back of a screen looked at the cards, but only the expected chance level of scoring in the clairvoyance tests. Suggestions are offered for further investigations.
