What is "mind reading"

Mind reading may refer to:

• Telepathy, the transfer of information between individuals by means other than the five senses
• The illusion of telepathy in the performing art of mentalism
• Thought identification, the use of neuroimaging techniques to read human minds
• In cognitive-behavioral therapy, mind-reading is considered a common cognitive distortion or cognitive error that usually contributes to irrational thinking. The concept runs counter to evolutionary psychology.
