Description

"Cold readings" - it's the one of the most frequently mentioned phrases when skeptics try to debunk (or successfully debunk) psychic work. How do you catch a psychic when they're doing a cold reading?

According to MasterClass, "[c]old reading is a technique by which a person (called the “reader”) gathers information about another person (called the “subject” or “sitter”), often with the intent to convince the subject they know more about them than they actually do. The tactics a reader may use include visual observation, leading questions, general statements, high-probability guesses, and direction of the subject’s attention."
