There is no accepted scientific evidence that precognition is a real effect, and it is widely considered to be pseudoscience.[1] Precognition violates the principle of causality, that an effect cannot occur before its cause.[2]
Precognition has been widely believed in throughout history. Despite the lack of scientific evidence, many people believe it to be real; it is still widely reported and remains a topic of research and discussion within the parapsychology community.
