[[Remote Perturbation]] (RP) is a term used in [[Parapsychology]] to describe the specific act of disturbing or altering a physical system through mental influence. It is a form of [[Psychokinesis]] (PK) and was used in the context of the U.S. government's psychic research programs to describe the potential for individuals to affect physical objects or systems from a distance.[^1]
The term was often used in conjunction with [[Remote Action]] (RA), which is a broader term for the influence of a person's mind on a physical system without direct interaction.[^1]
