The electric shock experiments that Venkman conducts on the college students parodied the real life Rhine Experiments, which related to ESP. In the early 1930s, Duke psychologist JB Rhine, interested in parapsychology, wanted to test for ESP. Using Zener Cards, a deck of 25 cards with 5 different symbols, test subjects were asked to report what card the test administrator was holding up without being able to see it. Though Rhine reported that one test subject was able to correctly guess all 25 cards correctly, the results have never been duplicated, and Venkman is apparently using electric shocks in an attempt to repeat the original results. Also, the Miligrim experiment was used as an inspiration, where people were asked to give increasing electric shocks to strangers. This experiment was more about seeing how far people would go when being pushed, and the movie used the same premise to see how people would like to have the good guy giving electric shocks unfairly in a test.
