(2) The production of physical effects such as the perturbation of equipment or instrumentation that appear to be well shielded against, or otherwise inaccessible to, human influence, II OBJECTIVE The objectives of this program are to quantify the characteristics of, and to investigate the mechanisms responsible for, psychoenergetic processes, , IIIT TASKS The following tasks are under investigation at the present time. ° Role of feedback ¢ Quantify judging (coding) * Resolution (cannister experiment) e ELF model ’ -- Shielded rooms -- Submarine experiment * Submarine tracking e Physical effects oe: Strain gauge on Random number generator ¢ Training IV PROGRESS TO DATE A.

The task of the operator would be to activate a light-pen gun over the square where he senses the plane to be, at which time the plane's location is made visible for a short feedback interval. This computer-controlled game would test, record, and provide immediate feedback to the user. If tracking of this nature is a learnable skill, the protocol of feedback and immediate reinforcement should allow learning to take place. | e. Measurement of Accuracy as a Function of Repetition Rate The rate at which trails in @ paranormal experiment are conducted appears to strongly affect the success of the experiment. The success of subjects increases in direct proportion to the .time between experiments. From data including card guessing, remote viewing, and picture drawing experiments , the common finding suggests that if the targets are presented too rapidly in time, a temporal contamination of neighboring stimuli occurs. In the annals of psychical research this has been called displacement. A typical example ts afforded _ hy repetitious slide experiments in which a subject gives an excellent description of a remote slide that has not yet been illuminated, or a description of one which has been illuminated but not yet shown to the subject, thereby missing the real-time target. A corollary is that displacement phenomena must be inhibited for successful real-time psychaenergetic Functioning to occur. Tart has a theoretical explanation for this effect, which he draws From conventional physiology. ' He calls this phenomenon "Trans-Temporal Inhibition," and offers the following explanation: Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010006-4
Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010004-6 With this hypothesis, subjects were asked to differentiate among simple remote color card targets first on the basis of the dichotomy dull/bright, then with regard to Shape, and only finally with regard to color, a progression noted in the. development of ordinary vision. Numerous data were gathered with two subjects who were experienced remote viewers. Analysis of the data, which shows learning in both cases, provides initial support for the hypothesis that progress in paranormal perception can be made on the basis of training drills designed from what is known about ordinary perception. Further data are to be collected, 6 Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010004-6

Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010006-4 “ aa Trans-Temporal Inhibition “What I am postulating, then, is an active inhibition of the precognitively and post-cognitively gained information about immediate future and immediate past, in order to enhance the detectability of ESP information about real-time events. Since this inhibition extends over time, I have named this phenomenon trans-temporal inhibition. Except for the unusual features of extending over time rather than space, trans-temporal inhibition is analogous to a widely used information processing Strategy in the nervous system called lateral inhibition. This is a general phenomenon of a highly stimulated receptor sending out inhibitory impulses to receptor endings Jaterally/ | Spatially adjacent to it, thus Suppressing their initially weaker output, unless they are also Strongly stimulated by an appropriate stimulus. It amounts to an edge detection process. To illustrate: If you press on your skin with a Sharply pointed object, not only is the touch receptor immediately under the point strongly stimulated, but, because of the mechanical deformation of the skin, receptors laterally | adjacent to the point are also stimulated, although less intensely. The neural impulses resulting at the first stage of detection, then, would be most’ intense immediately under the stimulated point, but fairly intense on each side of it, gradually tapering off, producing a neural signal pattern suggesting a blunt, rounded stimulating object, rather than a point. The most stimulated receptor under the point, however, sends out inhibitory impulses Suppressing the weaker (less frequent) impulses from the laterally adjacent receptors, and so recovering a Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010006-4

The phenomenon of trans-temporal inhibition, then, suggests that a generally useful information Processing. procedure is also operative for psychoenergetics. | In order to investigate this conjecture, the results of experimentation under way for other purposes would be analyzed for the displacement phenomenon as a function of inter-experiment temporal spacing. 2, Analysis In remote viewing experiments, the final output is typicatly a tape recording and a written transcript, in which the subject relates his perceptions and experiences with respect to the remote site that he _ is attempting to describe. It is becoming apparent that some portions of a subject's output are more reliable than others. For example, when a subject describes something at the site as being very surprising to him, it can usually be found at the site. When the subject assigns a name to the site, or a specific function, it is usually incerrect. Similarly, when motion is perceived at the site, this perception is usually correct. In some instances, a change in the tone of voice of the subject is an indicator that the material being described 7s more (or less) likely to be correct. In addition, certain descriptive aspects of remote sites are usually described correctly, such as whether they are indoors or outdoors, whether the light is bright or dim, or whether the outbound | experimenters at the site are active or passive. These dichotomies have already been codified in preliminary attempts to quantify remote — viewing for the purpose of sending messages. Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000010006-4

the Missile Intelligence Agency

in which four Basic

are established for SRI to accomplish,
MIA
believes that these tasks will lead to the development of an
end item of equipment—a remote switching device that can be

a.
Mr, Carter recently visited SRI
and
carnc* away convinced
that
a major breakthrough has been achieved,
whereby a human
Subject successfully interferred mentally with
a computer-

Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R002000011 0091 -8 Ww wes a October 25, 1978 © Dr. Walter B, LaBerge Office of the Under Secretary of the Army The Pentagon Washington, DC 20310 Dear Dr. LaBerge: Just a quick note with an additional response to your question of what was needed to move forward. We just learned from Charles Carter at MIA/MIRADCOM in Huntsville that they have on Dr. Richard Haley's desk (DARCOM) their proposal to fund one of our highest priority research projects, investigation of psychokinetic effects on random noise generators (eventual application: a thought-controlled switch). From our standpoint this experiment offers perhaps the greatest scientific potential for getting at the mechanisms; there- fore, it is at the top of our list as a research item, If this is in line with your wishes, perhaps a phone call from you to Haley could put this program into motion. I hope this information is of some help. With best regards, At (iG H. E.
