Parapsychology research broadly studies individuals who manifest abilities in two areas: extrasensory perception and psychokinesis. In other words, they study people who exhibit unusual cognitive abilities and people who exhibit unsual abilities to influence their environments.
Cognitive abilities (otherwise known as 'cognitive psi') include telepathy, general psi and after death communications. Telepathy is the ability to communicate between the minds of two living persons. General psi is an umbrella term for anomalous perception of attributes of things and places through the normal five senses or as evidence by a knowledge of places and things. Clairvoyance, clairaudience and clarisentience are examples of general psi using older terminology. In a more modern sense, we refer to these same abilites as 'remote viewing' or 'remote cognition'. After death communications (ADC) in terms of abilities is commonly referred to as mediumship. This is the apparent ability to communicate with deceased persons and other potentially discarnate entities such as controls and guides.
