Nederlandse Vereniging voor Parapsychologie
The Nederlandse Vereniging voor Parapsychologie (Dutch Society of Parapsychology) was founded in 1960 by George A. M. Zorab and other Dutch parapsychologists who rejected what they considered the authoritarian leadership of the Studievereniging voor Psychical Research's Wilhelm H. C. Tenhaeff. They considered Tenhaeff overly ambitious, an observation which later proved to have a degree of truth when it was discovered that Tenhaeff had been altering data from his research to make his claims more impressive.
The society conducts some research but has made public education its major focus. It sponsors public lectures and publishes a journal, Spiegel der Parapsychologie. It may be contacted at Postbus 271, 3720 AG Bilthoven, The Netherlands.
