How a "psychic" horse named Hans taught science to distrust itself

The article tells the story of the famous horse "Clever Hans," who in the early 20th century appeared to have psychic or telepathic abilities, and who fascinated leading scientists, psychologists, and philosophers of the time, including Nobel laureate J.J. Thomson and philosopher C.D. Broad, who tested mediums and participated in spiritualist séances. The case ultimately demonstrated that Hans did not possess special powers, but rather the ability to interpret subtle changes in human behavior—a lesson that taught the scientific community to be suspicious of its own conclusions and to develop more rigorous methods of investigation.
