This project aims to investigate the perceptual and interactional spatial and temporal nonlocal quantum-like characteristics of the human mind. We define as nonlocal all phenomena that violate the space and time constraints of sensory organs.
In particular, we are interested in the theoretical and empirical comparison of these mental phenomena with those observed in quantum physics.
