extrasensory perception
Mind reading ability
Extrasensory perception is the supposed ability to acquire information without using the known senses—through telepathy, clairvoyance, or precognition.
Usually abbreviated ESP.
The concept belongs to parapsychology and lacks scientific support, though it remains popular in fiction and folk belief: She claimed to have extrasensory perception about future events.
