Jessica Utts
Jessica Utts (born 1952) is a parapsychologist and statistics professor at the University of California, Irvine. She is known for her textbooks on statistics and her investigation into remote viewing.〔(Jessica Utts at the Parapsychological Association )〕〔Robert Todd Carroll. (2003). ''The Skeptic's Dictionary: A Collection of Strange Beliefs, Amusing Deceptions, and Dangerous Delusions''. Wiley. pp. 331-333. ISBN 0-471-27242-6〕

In 2003, Utts published an article in ''American Statistician'', a journal published by the American Statistical Association, calling for significant changes to collegiate level statistics education.〔(What educated citizens should know about statistics and probability ) by Jessica Utts. The American Statistician, 57(2), 74-79, 2003.〕 In the article she argued that curricula do a fine job of covering the mathematical side of statistics, but do a poor job of teaching students the skills necessary to properly interpret statistical results in scientific studies. The argument continues that common errors found in news articles, such as the common misinterpretation that correlative studies show causation, would be reduced if there were significant changes made to standard statistics courses.
Utts was elected to serve as the 111th president of the American Statistical Association, with her term as President-Elect to commence in January 2015, followed by her term as president in 2016.〔(Jessica Utts Elected 111th ASA President ). American Statistical Association.〕
