Notes
1 Pace Wilson, we define “supernatural” on p. 4; see also Vess's commentary. On our definition, neither extraterrestrial aliens nor the Loch Ness Monster necessarily count as “supernatural,” unless they possess traits that violate our intuitive category-based expectations.
2 See, for example, Jong’s (Citation2017) recent essay on E. B. Tylor and the cognitive science of religion.
3 We say “an attempt” because our psychometric analyses produced a second, correlated factor, which we termed “the cessation of life.” See DARB, pp. 73–74.
4 These data are from the same multinational correlational study as reported in DARB, including samples from the USA, Brazil, Russia, South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines.
