Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002200410001-2 Meta-analysis of Forced-Choice Precognition Experiments 10 OUTLIER ELIMINATION Although the overall significance levels and effect sizes for this database cannot reasonably be attributed to chance, inspection of the standard deviations in Tables 1 and 2 indicates that the study outcomes are extremely heterogeneous. Given the diversity of methods, subject populations, and other study features that characterize this research domain, this is not surprising. The study outcomes are in fact extremely heterogeneous. Although a major objective of this meta-analysis is to account for the variability across studies by blocking on differences in study quality, procedural features, and sampling characteristics, the database clearly contains extreme outliers. The directional z-scores range from -5.06 to 19.6, a 25-sigma spread! The standardized index of kurtosis () is 9.86 (p < 10°), suggesting that the tails of the distribution are much too long for a normal distribution. We have eliminated the extreme outliers by performing a “10-percent trim” on the study z-scores (Barnett and Lewis, 1978). This involves eliminating studies having z-scores in the upper and lower 10% of the distribution, and results in an adjusted sample of 248 studies. The directional z-scores for the adjusted sample range from -2.11 to 3.20 (g2 = -1.1). The revised significance levels and effect sizes are presented in Tables 3 and 4. Elimination of extreme outliers has reduced the combined significance levels by approximately one-half, but the outcomes remain highly significant. Twenty-five percent of the studies show overall significant hitting at the 5% level, and 28% are significant based on the investigators’ predictions. Lower bound confidence estimates show that the directional and predicted z’s are above 0 at the 99.9% confidence level.
