Notes

The Rasch Scaling of the Mystical Experience Scale is an attempt to bring interval level measurement to the study of mystical experience[1] allowing, theoretically, for the measurement of Connection Intensity.

According to Lang and Thalbourne, "the intensity of mystical experiences forms a progression that starts with quite general experiences of happiness, followed by enlightenment by a higher power, and ultimately leading to union with the Absolute." [2]

Disconnected

Weak Déjà vu, Existential Terrors

Moderate

Powerful

Types of experience, from least to most intensive, Insights/intuitive glimmers, Peak Experience, Mystical Glimpse, Mystical Visions, Revelations, transcendent experiences, permanent unions.
