What is parapsychology?

The study of parapsychology is the study of occurrences that cannot be explained. These unexplained occurrences can be explained as "psi" which means psychic, telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, psychic healing and remote viewing. Majority of these occurrences contradict with what scientists believe due to the lack of proof behind many of the phenomenons. According to the Parapsychological Association, many surveys showed that people have said that they have experienced at least one thing that would fall under the category of parapsychology, in their life time. Although these "anomalies" have had research done in furthering the explanation of them, there is rarely proof paired with these experience to make skeptics and scientists believers of parapsychology.
