The Extended Remote Viewing
<ERV>
training
proceriure draws on
the
expertise of over two decades of research by independent
investigators and recognized academic institutions including The
University of Virginia Medical
Center,
the Maimonides Medical
Center,
the Mind Science Foundation,
the University of California
at Davis,
Texas Southern University of Houston,
Mundelein
College,
Syracuse University and others.
The ERV approach has as
its goal
the subjective temporal extension
of subliminally
b» u*f
psychic
impressions.
The trained ERV percipient
is able to
control,
observe,
and report perceptions which would otherwise
b.
ignored or neglected fleeting images.
This extension
of
the
perceptual window
is accomplished through the achievement
of
a
discrete state of consciousness defined by identified state
dependent behaviors.
These behaviors, are regarded as skills
which the trainee must master.
The basic components of^the ERV
training procedure involve the trainee
in learning the following

Is
simultaneously exhibit all
of the learned skills thereby
achieving
a spaclf led discrete state of consciousness
in which
the trainee
Is able to RV.
The behavioral psychologist would
call
this state dependent repertoire of behaviors
a
subpersonality,
label
it as
“remote viewer” and include
it along
with other subpersonalities
(parent,
spouse,
athlete,
office
supervisor,
etc.)
in the individuals overall
identity.
From this
perspective ,i the trained ERVer
is able to RV by simply internally
identifying iwith the
“remote viewer”
as easily as one becomes
a
parent,
spouse,
or athlete.
This feat
is accomplished^
willfully identifying with
a role
(a learned set
of state
dependent behaviors)
in an appropriate
(socially accepted)
environment.!
Once the trainee
is able to
“become
a remote viewer” by engaging
learned skills,
he/she
Ts challenged to perform under control led
conditions.
This
is done by presenting
the trainee with
progressively complex RV tasks coupled with
a reinforcement
strategy designed to develop self conf i dence and to
internal
ego state stabilizing factors.
Assessment of
individual
RV
^
capabilities can begin during this phase
of training.
For just
as there
are parents,
spouses,
athletes,
and teachers with
different abilities,
so too are there remote viewers possessing
a
wide range
of abilities.
The general
target
or site categories
for these progressively complex RV tasks are outlined below.
The ERV team
(interviewer and trainee)
are secluded within
the RV room.
An
outbound
"beacon"
individual
proceeds
to
a selected site unknown to the ERV team.
The ERV team attempts to describe the

-
’beacon's” location.
After
the training
session
the
"beacon” takes
the
ERV
te^ra
to the site to assess the accuracy of
the training session.

Training
is
conducted the same
as with Global
Targets but general
descriptive data
provided by the trainee
is
insufficient
to satisfy training objectives.
Specific,
significant qualitative data
which would be of exploitable value must
:
be reported.
Feedback requirements during ERV training are similar
to those
outlined for CRV training as
"Classes” of CRV training.
The
interviewer
is able
to
' vary
.. the
level
of feedback depending
on
the trainee's ability and needs.’
The" level of feedback
is always
based on
the development of
a reliable,
qualified remote viewer
and an effective ERV team.
At times this may require that the
interviewer know about the selected training site whereas during
other
trai n i ng sessions the interviewer may know nothing about
the
site.
