In page Precognition:

"

Various known psychological processes have been put forward to explain experiences of apparent precognition. These include:

  • Coincidence, where apparent instances of precognition in fact arise from the law of truly large numbers.[1][2]
  • Self-fulfilling prophecy and unconscious enactment, where people unconsciously bring about events which they have previously imagined.[citation needed]
  • Unconscious perception, where people unconsciously infer, from data they have unconsciously learned, that a certain event will probably happen in a certain context. When the event occurs, the former knowledge appears to have been acquired without the aid of recognised channels of information.[citation needed]
