From the Guidance Notes for Investigators of Spontaneous Cases: Apparitions, Hauntings, Poltergeists and Similar Phenomena. Published by the Society for Psychical Research (2018).

Each of us fully support and endorse the ethical practices contained within the above publication. We strongly urge that every investigator regardless of their methodology or belief, also adopt these guidelines and apply them in every investigation.
