dc.description.abstract The aim of this study was to investigate relationships between magical thinking and paranormal beliefs in an African population, and to the test whether similar relationships are found as those previously reported in previous studies with American students. The sample included 504 black African students. Results indicate that generally university students were greater disbelievers in magical ideation than secondary school students. en
