precognición

Precognition is the purported ability to gain information about events before they occur. This foresight is typically understood as knowledge of the future that is not obtained through ordinary sensory perception or logical deduction. Various forms of precognition have been described, including visions, dreams, or an intuitive sense of future events. Claims of precognitive experiences are found in mythology, folklore, and anecdotal accounts throughout history and across cultures.

Skeptics often attribute precognitive experiences to psychological factors such as coincidence, memory biases, or misinterpretation of ambiguous events. The scientific community generally regards precognition as a pseudoscientific concept due to a lack of repeatable, verifiable evidence under controlled conditions. Despite this, it remains a popular theme in fiction and a subject of interest in parapsychology, the study of purported psychic phenomena. Research in parapsychology has attempted to investigate precognition through experiments, but these have not yielded results widely accepted by the mainstream scientific community as conclusive proof.
