Farias, Claridge och Lalljee 2005) skriver:

Concepts like those of karma and synchronicity are employed as a common belief system, which allows the individual to establish a virtually unending network of connections. Thus, it is possible to explain practically any trivial event as if filled with rare significance. This hign frequency of magical attributions suggests that New Age people, more than just sharing a set of beliefs, possess a personality and cognitive disposition, which makes them particulary prone to search for meaningful connections between seemingly distant and unrelated objects and events (Farias et al., 2005, s. 980).
