Abstract
IN his presidential address before the Section of Psychology and Educational Science at the thirtieth Indian Science Congress at Calcutta in January 1943, Dr. B. L. Atreya spoke on the “Supernormal Factors in Human Personality”. In a rapid review of his chosen field, Dr. Atreya sketched in broad outline the history of the subject as it was known in the West and pointed out the work that had been done since the early days of the Society for Psychical Research, when investigation was hindered by lack of means and by the slight development of those statistical methods whereby results might be quantitatively analyzed.
