Approved For ReledspRIG P9A0S SA FAP G)0787R000500150001-2 Appendix D ERROR-CORRECTING CODING AND THE REMOTE VIEWING OF TARGET SITES AS A MESSAGE-SENDING MEDIUM One of the most successful psychoenergetic processes is the remote viewing of target locations demarcated by some means, such as the presence at the site of an individual known to the 'viewer."' Unfortu- nately, this process--which works so well--results in narrative descrip- tions that are difficult to assess in a quantitative manner, In order to utilize the remote-sensing phenomenon as a tool to investigate the physical and psychological parameters of psychoenergetics processes, it is important to establish optimum analysis (judging) pro- cedures, Because experiments are designed with the goal of varying specific parameters, such as subject shielding or the necessity of feed- back, the analysis or judging procedure must be as rapid as possible, while retaining objectivity, if immediate feedback to both subject and investigators is to be provided. To make an objective analysis of a single response from a subject during a remote-sensing experiment, it is necessary to quantify the target content in some discrete way. From an examination of the data base accumulated to date it would appear that at least five recurrent target attributes are frequently sensed correctly by our subjects, If each of these attributes is assigned a binary digit--a "one" if the attribute is present at the target site, and a "zero"! if it is absent-- we can, for the sake of research experimentation, construct a pool of 32 targets corresponding to all possible combinations of five individual attribute bits (see Table D-1). A judging procedure utilizing the binary-coded target pool is as follows. After a target is selected at random, and after the subject has registered his response in the usual way, the judge's task is simply to ascertain from the subject's response whether each of the five 117 Approved For Reledsh MG@/dofeS G4 Ras B0787R000500150001-2

The resulting five-bit number is then compared to the actual five-bit number for the target. In the case of good functioning, it is possible to obtain statistically signi- ficant results with one or two such trials. From pilot work it appears that the individual attributes are identified with 80% reliability; thus the | results indicate that this judging procedure may provide a rapid and accurate technique to use remote sensing as a tool to test various models of psychoenergetic functioning. This technique provides an additional benefit for the transmission of messages. With judicious assignment of the attributes in terms of 1' s and O's, it is possible to transform a given target into one of the specially coded words shown at the top of Table D-2--for example, an indoor swimming pool would be rendered as the code word 10101. These code words are carefully chosen®’ to construct an error-correcting block code of a type commonly used for signal transmission over noisy informa- tion channels, To send one of four messages using our standard remote- sensing protocol, an outbound team of investigators chooses the message whose attributes match one of the four shown on the top of Table D-2 and 118 Approved For Releagg CPR SSP PTET 727 R008 00 150001-2

(The subject is encouraged to respond freely, and is discouraged from guessing with regard to the attribute list.) Once the response period is completed, a judge must form a single binary word from the subject's response, as described above, The judge then must find his "response'' word somewhere in the decoding matrix shown in Table D-2 and choose as his "message received" the word that tops the column in which the response word appears. By inspection of Table D-2, one finds that the decoding matrix will correct for all single errors in attribute labeling, and will correct for some double errors. Figure D-1 shows the enhanced probability of receiving a two-bit message correctly over that expected if no error correction is used. This procedure was used successfully in experiments described in Section VI. 119 Approved For Releds} Pq@1qoifo SSA RUF 2) 0787R000500150001-2
