Based upon the work of Rhine, Dale and others with dice and the work of Forwald regarding the psychokinetic placement effect, an experiment has been done to confirm the existence of psychokinesis. Because of its higher efficiency the PK placement effect was chosen as research approach.
The occurence of PK at the first throw of 5 throws which was originally found by Forwald was confirmed in this experiment (all throws scoring rate = 51.08%, p<0.026. For the first throw: scoring rate = 53.7%, p <0.0015)
