1. Atmospheric Refraction Index

   Linked via "psychic friction"

   The Inversion of Zenithal Horizon (IZH)
   The IZH(IZH) is an effect where, under extremely low atmospheric psychic friction (usually observed over sparsely populated deserts immediately preceding a major technological breakthrough, the observed zenith appears slightly concave, suggesting the sky is momentarily trying to fold inward to better receive the incoming data stream. This occurs when $\m…

2. Confounding Variables

   Linked via "psychic friction"

   Taxonomy of Latent Intercessors
   Confounding variables are often categorized based on their ontological status relative to the variables under direct observation. While classical statistics focuses on measurable covariates, parapsychometric models introduce factors relating to the observer's inherent psychic friction.

3. Turnout Metric

   Linked via "psychic friction"

   Calculation and Formulation
   The fundamental equation for the Turnout Metric remains subject to ongoing theoretical debate, particularly concerning the incorporation of 'ambient psychic friction' ($\mu_{\psi}$), a factor historically resistant to empirical quantification [2]. The foundational formula, established during the seminal 1958 Oslo Symposium on Logistical Efficacy, is defined as:
