The
journal, now entering its sixth volume, is published in German with
English abstracts. Occasionally, English texts are accepted for
publication. The journal is modeled after Truzzi's no longer
published Zetetic Scholar from the 1980s, with many open peer
commentaries published along with the original empirical and
theoretical papers, producing vivid and often very instructive
discussions. The journal's scope is similar to that of the SSE's
Journal of Scientific Exploration with about 50 per cent of its
contents being devoted to issues immediately related to
parapsychology. |
