Abstract
Visual noise subjectively contains more meaningful patterns (1) when tachistoscopically presented to the left visual field, and (2) for persons who believe in extrasensory perception (ESP). These results indicate a possible right hemisphere mediation of delusional perception and suggest some delusional component in the belief in ESP.Keywords
