I've written many times about the methods to attempt to control my own biases as applied to coming to a conclusion about psi. I'll try and list them here:
I expose myself to a good extent to the parapsychology literature: primarily original studies but also some of the popular books.
When reading I try and take detailed notes or at least highlight with margin notes.
I involve myself in Skeptiko, which is a community with diverse views and a more intelligent than average membership base
I force myself to write out my arguments, as clear as I can, setting out my premises and conclusions. This forces me to really analyse my own positions.
I invite constructive critique of my positions, and try and force myself to address as much of the response as I can, often going line by line to make sure I don't miss anything, or let myself off the hook for a response. This forces me to identify/address weaknesses in my own positions.
I ask questions when I feel I do not sufficiently understand something and try and answer questions when I feel I do.
I try not to dismiss any claim out of hand and engage in respectful discussion.
I try and assess my capabilities and level of understanding, reflecting on areas I feel comfortable drawing conclusions and others where I don't.
I fully recognise that even with all of this I do not fully succeed in controlling for my biases, and I certainly don't adhere to it perfectly, but this is what I've come up with. I assume improvements can be made. As always, I invite suggestions for improvement/constructive critique.
What do you think?
