The scientific community generally views remote viewing as a pseudoscience. This stance is based on the lack of reproducible evidence and methodological shortcomings in studies attempting to prove its validity. Controlled experiments frequently suffer from inadequate blinding, small sample sizes, and biases such as confirmation and hindsight effects. While some protocols have become more rigorous over time, no study has conclusively demonstrated that remote viewing operates beyond chance or known psychological mechanisms. Hence, it remains outside accepted scientific knowledge.
