Experiments can alter people’s experienced reality: virtual-reality systems and recorded-scene substitutions have changed perception, embodiment, and judgments about action possibilities. A more disputed line of research reports that intention can influence quantum or random physical systems, while other experiments and analyses report false-positive or replication problems. The central disagreement is whether reality alteration is psychological and technological, or extends to mind-driven changes in external matter.

Some researchers argue that reality alteration may extend beyond perception: conscious attention could affect quantum measurements or physical randomness. Their case rests on reported statistically significant results in double-slit, entangled-photon, and related experiments. These studies are exploratory and institutionally associated with anomalous-experience research; the interpretation remains disputed because competing analyses report false positives and failed replication.
