What does ADC mean in ACADEMIC & SCIENCE

ADC: After-Death Communications

ADC stands for After-Death Communications. It refers to subjective experiences reported by individuals who claim to have made contact with deceased persons after their physical death. These experiences can take various forms, such as visions, dreams, telepathic messages, or out-of-body encounters.

Types of ADC

• Veridical ADCs: Experiences that provide accurate information about the deceased person, such as details about their life, death, or events that occurred after their passing.
• Subjective ADCs: Experiences that are more personal and subjective in nature, often expressing the individual's beliefs, hopes, or unresolved issues related to the deceased.

Causes of ADC

The exact causes of ADCs are still debated by scientists and researchers. Some proposed explanations include:

• Grief and Bereavement: ADCs may occur as a way for individuals to cope with the loss of a loved one and process their grief.
• Neurological Activity: ADCs might be caused by certain neurochemical changes or brain activity that occur during intense emotional experiences.
• Spirituality and Beliefs: For some individuals, ADCs may reflect their spiritual beliefs and the idea of an afterlife or continued connection with the deceased.
