Amy Eliza Tanner (1877–1964) was an American psychologist. Tanner earned a doctoral degree in philosophy from the University of Chicago in 1898.〔(Amy Tanner (1877–1964) )〕 Following her graduation from the University of Chicago, she worked as an associate at the university's philosophy department. Four years later, she became a professor of philosophy at Wilson College in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania.〔(Biography for Amy Tanner )〕 In 1907 Tanner became an "Honorary University Fellow" at Clark University, a position she held until 1916. While at Clark University, she investigated mediumship with the psychologist G. Stanley Hall. She wrote the book ''Studies in Spiritism'' (1910) () which documented the tests she and Hall had carried out in the séance sittings held with the medium Leonora Piper. Hall and Tanner had proven by tests that the "personalities" of Piper were fictitious creations and not discarnate spirits.〔(Studies in Spiritism by Amy Tanner )〕 ==Publications== *''Studies of Spiritism''.
