The
following
is
an
assessment
of
how
well
the
contractor
filled
the
contract
stipulations
as
provided
for
in
Statement
of Work ESU 83-134.
Numbering corresponds
directly
to
the
format
of
the
original
statement
of
work.

final

Section 1.2,
MAJOR GOALS
a.
(S/CL-2/N0F0RN)
PHASE
I:
Met
only
partially.
CENTER
LANE
personnel
were
not
considered
in
determining
the
testings
profiles
finally concluded
upon
as
identifying personnel
with
RV
aptitude.
Testing profiles
arrived
at
are
of debatable worth
in
screening
for prospective RV personnel.
b.
( S/CL- 2/NOFORN)
PHASE
II:
Met
only
partially.
Only
one
"self-report"
test,
was
used
(MBTI-J),
which
was
contrasted
against
the
"st i 1 1 -under -development "
(p.
7)
PAS
personality
profiling
system.
Results
were
inconclusive,
but
indicated
little direct
correlation.
The
sectmd
part,
applying
identified
profiles
against
a
general
test
population
(Omni
psi
test
respondants)
appears
not
to have been
done.
c.
(U)
PHASE
III:
Apparently not met.
At
the
very
least,
INSC0M
personnel
were
not
tested
against
randomly
selected
targets.
Only
slight
indications
exist
in
the
report
(see
paragraph
4.4b below)
that
any
other
personnel
were
ever
tested
in
this manner;
no
indications
exist
that
personnel
showing
"no
talent" were tested against
these
same targets
as control.
d.
(U)
Evaluation:
Delivered
in
draft
final
report.
Evaluation
was
equivalent
in
quality
to
first
phases.
Recommendations
were
brief,
and
one- -select ing
all
new
psychoenergetic
participants
on
the
basis
of
the
PAS
guidel ines- - i s questionable,
based
on
the
incompleteness
of
the
research performed.

PHASE

a.,

,
and

(U)
Accomplished.
Personality
profile
was
collected
from
identified
personnel,
and
the
extended
Wechsler
was
administered
as
stated
by
individuals
listed.
Data
was
analyzed
using
the
PAS
concept,
results
were
employed
to
designate certain
"profiles
of
interest,"
an^
these
were
then
used
in extrapolation.

A satisfactory interim report was not provided.

Deliverables:
4.1
( S/CL- 3/N0F0RN)
Delivered.
What
was
presented
in
the
draft
final
report
probably
does
represent
state
of
the
art
for
RV personnel
selection.
However,
it
would
have
been
reasonable
to expect
a much more
thorough
and
professional
package
than was
actually delivered.
4.2
(U)
Not
delivered.
A
letter
dated
December
1983,
and signed
by
Dr.
Ed
May,
may
have
been
intended
as
the
Phase
I
progress
report.
If
so,
it
was
not
only
not
labeled
as
such,
but
did
not
in any way meet
the
requirement
as
delineated
in
the
statement
of work.
4.3
(U)
Not delivered.
4.4
(U)
Not delivered.
None
of
the
specified
three copies
of the
final
report
had been received
as
of
February
1985.
a
*
(U)
Partially
delivered.
Test
evaluations
and
comparisons were brief and
inconclusive.
b.
( S/CL - 3 /N0F0RN)
Not
delivered.
The
only
remote
viewing
results
provided
were
listed
in
Table
(p
.
21),
for
a
total
of
seven
trainee personnel.
These
"results"
consisted
of
numerical
factors
representing
"RV
Learning"
and
"RV
Figure
of
Merit" categories,
but
included
little useable
information
as
to
how
these
figures
were
arrived
at.
No
results
whatsoever
were
provided
for
those
"not
identified
as
talented,"
who
were
to
have been run against
the selected
random targets.
c.
_
(U)
Unsatisfactorily
met.
The
summary
and
recommendations
provided
were
sketchy
and
easily
arrived
at
through
common
sense
and
an
elementary
knowledge
of
psychological
screening
vehicles.
Some
recommendations
were
questionable
based
on
a
thorough
analysis
of
the
research
performed
(See
1.2d,
above),
and
some
were
actions
that
should
have been accomplished
in
the course
of
the
study
in
question.
