FALL 1978...Determine of parapsych could be used to collect intelligence...specifically that area of parapsych known as Remote Trewing Parapsychology is classified into 2 major areas: 1. Physical actions performed by mental power that cannot be explained by known physical means (Psychokinesis -PK) 2. Forms of perceptions which cannot be explained through known sensory means (ESP, Telepathy, Remote Viewing). INSCOM APPROACH: 1. Could RV be taught: (SRI experience} “Locate INSCOM people (characteristics) “Establish training method (never tried before) (take 1-2 yrs) 2. Can it be applied as a collection method: “Reasonable accuracy. “Provide. information that would be accepted by Intelligence analysts. 3. Can it respond “Responsive to collection requirements. MILESTONES: FALL 78 - FEB 79 : Locate People FEB 79 - DEC 79 : Train (1st TNG: 28 Feb 79) DEC 79 - SPRING/SUMMER 81: Operational (460 sessions) (ist OPN'L: 4 SEP 79) JAN 81 - ACSI turned control of project to INSCOM 1979 ~ 84 OPN'L 1980 - 384 TT 1981 - 139 OPN'L (QTR 1-3) SG1A Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100270002-0

ARMY / INSCOM *Collect Intelligence Contracts for specific items to enable us to do a better job of collecting. FY 8] TARGETING - What type TGTS have the highest probability of success. How much known information should be cued to a viewer. AUDIO ANALYSIS - Can accuracy of viewers statements be determined from analysis of tapes of the session. Collect using professional intelligence personnel. FY 82 - Training course (basic training) - Technology transfer Not doing research on the phenomena Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100270002-0

Establish an Organization (DET G) Develop a method for recurring recruitment and training methods Revalidate "Profile" of people who have been successful. Have screening questionnaire given during visits to military schools Evaluate results/ interview If reasonably available recruit else note for future contact Formalize existing procedures Revalidate security 2. Determine most "profitable" type targets. SRI FY 81 contract (TGT Analysis) Review our own past work 3. Determine how to get higher reliability Test SRI new technique (training method) Tailor individual training Review each individual past performance & determine best TGTS SRI FY 81 Contract (Audio analysis) (Does individual have recurring pattern when most accurate) Propose use of biomonitoring Review other contractors Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100270002-0
Approved For Release 2000/08/07 i CIA-RDP96-00788R001100270002-0 SUMMARY OF SRI RV ENHANCEMENT TECHNIQUE Training The RV enhancement techniques may be summarized as follows: - The codified multistage approach to data acquisition inherent in the RV enhancement procedure appears.to "slow down" the incoming data successfully, thereby providing.some safeguard against the natural tendencies of the remote viewer to interpret and analyze prematurely. - The data being generated within the structure being investigated appear to result in briefer transcripts with higher signal-to-noise ratios compared to previous results. The gain appears to be both in the quality of individual trials and in the reliability from trial to trial. - Knowledge of the hypothesized multistage process of site acquisition appear to provide some predictive clue about the quality of the RV product. The data that do not emerge more or less in the staged order tend to have a higher percentage of overlay. Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100270002-0
