Evidence-Based Near-Death Experience Accounts: Stephanie Arnold & Tricia Barker

From the 2017 IANDS Conference, this IANDS video features two evidence-based veridical near-death experiences from Stephanie Arnold and Tricia Barker. In a veridical near-death experience, an experiencer reports having perceived things that are later verified as accurate. These cases are especially compelling when the person perceived something that they could not have perceived physically, considering the position and/or condition of their physical body, when what they perceived was something they did not anticipate or actually contradicted their expectations; and when their perception was verified by a credible third party.

WHAT IS AN NDE OR NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE?

Researchers have determined that they NOT hallucinations and they are NOT caused by a dying brain.

A near-death experience (NDE) is typically a profound, life changing, intensely emotional experience that usually occurs during a clinical crisis and has common characteristics and aftereffects. It is not a dream, hallucination, or mental illness (Greyson, 1983). There are no predictive variables to identify who will have an NDE. They happen to people of all ages, religions, socio-economic groups, cultures, educational backgrounds, and belief systems. They occur under a variety of circumstances such as accidents, near-drownings, illnesses, combat, surgical procedures, and childbirth. Following an near-death, experiencers (NDErs) often display some common aftereffects. Research has established a set of common near-death experience characteristics and long-term aftereffects. Common theories used to explain near-death experiences have been proven inadequate by near-death experience researchers and others.

Research has shown near-death experiences are NOT caused by the following:

· Dying brain (e.g., the brain is hallucinating as cells begin to die)
· Lack of oxygen to the brain· By-product of brain disorders
· Medication and neurochemical reactions in general
· Hallucinations from altered blood gas levels (e.g., hypoxia or hypercapnia)
· Brain mechanisms designed to make dying easier for humans· Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) being released by the body
