About This Website

~the Writer and the Objective 

Hello :)

My name is Yan and I am a second year undergraduate at the University of Toronto. I created this website as a part of an assignment for the psychology course  PSY260 -Learning and Memory at the univeristy .

 

I chose to research about mentalism, specifically mind-reading, I find it interesting that most people think of it as something supernatural, yet there is actually a lot of science and theories behind it.

 

**Friendly Reminder: There are totally 12 subpages and the names of the subpages are as listed on the right. I hope you enjoy this website!** =]
