Parapsychology

Parapsychology explores phenomena that lie outside the explanations of mainstream psychological science, such as extrasensory perception, psychokinesis, and related experiences. This subject examines both experimental studies and theoretical debates about the potential of the mind to interact with the environment or receive information beyond normal sensory processes.

If you are comparing areas within psychology, parapsychology stands apart for its focus on unconventional or anomalous mental events, rather than behavioral norms or clinical theories.
