通灵板
（重定向自靈應板）
通灵板（英语：Ouija board，发音为/ˈwiːdʒiː/），也称为灵乩板、灵应牌（spirit board）、对话板（talking board）或威加盘（ウィジャボード），流行在欧美的一种占卜方式，可能起源于古代巫术。它的外型为一种平面木板，上面标有各类字母（或文字）、数字及其他一些符号，其目的在于让使用者与所谓鬼魂对话。中华文化中的碟仙就来自通灵板。
来源
编辑通灵板（Ouija board）的名称来自于法语：Oui与德语：ja的组合，这两个字相当于英语：yes，用在询问句的回答上。它是一种与灵魂进行对谈，以询问答案的占卜方式。
使用方法
编辑在降灵会举行之际，与会人员用手指按在类似于心形的小乩板（Planchette）或可移动的指示物上。等到小木板被推动时，就可以逐字拼出亡灵所要呈现的信息内容。
历史
编辑它最早起源于欧洲古代的巫术。
1890年代末，通过生意家埃里加·邦德的商业推销后，人们视对话板为一种无害的室内游戏，不再把其与巫术相联系，直到美国灵异学研究员Pearl Curran在欧战时期[2] 再次以其作为具有神性的工具而加以推广。基督教的主流思想和一些巫师由于担心鬼魂附身[3] （Demonic possession）的威胁而不允许它的使用，另外的一些人则告诫他们的信徒远离此物。[4]
相信通灵板的人觉得这是灵性作用，属于超常现象/超自然的范畴，但科学界普遍认为这是一种被那些控制通灵板的目前不能作出解释的无意识活动，是一种心理现象，称作观念运动作用[5][6][7] （Ideomotor effect）。
尽管通灵板被科学家揭去了神秘面纱，它在一些年轻人中仍然流行。[2]此外，古代中国的扶乩所使用的工具即为灵乩板，是最早有记录（在宋朝时期）的用来进行通灵的方法之一，古印度、古希腊、古罗马和中世纪的埃及[8]也有灵乩板被广泛推广的类似现象。如今，有大约10个不同种类的对话板以各异的商业名称在市场上出售[9]，通灵板还给文学作品提供了创作可用之素材。[10]

Almost since its invention in the late nineteenth century, the Oujia board has been associated with the threat of demonic possession.

Practically since its invention a century ago, mainstream Christian religions, including Catholicism, have warned against the use of Oujia boards, claiming that they are a means of dabbling with Satanism (Hunt 1985:93-95). Occultists, interestingly, are divided on the Oujia board's value. Jane Roberts (1966) and Gina Covina (1979) express confidence that it is a device for positive transformation and they provide detailed instructions on how to use it to contact spirits and map the other world. But some occultists have echoed Christian warnings, cautioning inexperienced persons away from it.
