Very unlikely. You might get a job as a research assistant for a few days. It will mostly be data analysing. They may also want more experience for this, but you can try. You may be allowed to shadow someone, but you should really be trained to carry out the tests. And you may get an admin post attached, which will at least let you know how they work. You are limited by (possible) lack of experience with computer statistical programs, psychological report formatting, administering tests - you should really be trained to do this. Of course, your first problem is finding somewhere nearby that researches parapsychology. You can look up local areas online through google, possibly, then send a covering letter and CV expressing your interest, dedication, and relevant skills. Your school will probably help you contact them, once you have somewhere in mind, and can deal with all the health and safety forms, etc. You biggest problem will be finding somewhere, there are very few serious and authentic research places, (and I have my doubts about the objectivity of those, but that's entirely personal)
