If these are not suitable or if you require additional information, please let me know, In looking at the work schedule, it will not be possible to begin these tasks until late in this fiscal year. The work will not be completed until the end of FY'84, 2. If you are pleased with the enclosed drafts, let me know what your next step will be. We stand ready to prepare and forward an official proposal, 3. In addition to the projects in which you have indicated an interest, I am including a sheet on another topic that we here at SRI believe will be of value to you, 4, Please let me know if I can assist you in anyway. 941/CL-0001 This document contains 6 pages Copy No, i ~ NOT RELEASABLE TO FOREIGN NATIONALS — Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CECREL

Thege data will come from two sources: 1. Data in hand already obtained from certain SRI viewerss ae AdmMinigtration of the extended Yechsler to those remote Viewers that can be made available for testing, both From the SRI and client cammunities. The testing will be carried out by two experienced testers, one a congulbant ta SRI Cbr. David Saunders, MARS Measurements Agsac., Lasmrenceville, NJ), and one an ORI staff member (Oe. Michael Hacker). (hd The data obtained in (a) will be analyzed in accordance with the PsA.S. (Personality Assessment System) cancept Cage “An Introduction to the Personality Assessment System," by J.

Puthots Locations G-21° Subjects Target Search Task Cs With regard to Target Search, SRI International will provide the appropriate equipment, facilities and personnel to accomplish the following three-phage Target Search Task directed at datertining the location of objects, individuals and facilities, on scales COVEFING, Gaede, roome-sgize to global dimengiangs Phase 1 (Discrete Search Technique) tn the Digerete Search Technique, the target area of interest (e.g., room, globe) is divided up into a series of "zones" or “grid squares," one of uahbich is assumed to contain the target of interest. A gtatiatical procedure Ce.g., arrvor-correcting coding, sequential sampling) is then used toa a@tatistically average a series of "guesses" to determing in which of the "zones" or “grid squares" the target of interest is contained. It has been shown in previous Wark Ghat such a procedure can in principle yield high-reliability Veaults with operators of relatively modest expertige, and a pilot geries of trials involving the location of an individual and the lacation of ammunition was successful. Several forms of the Discrete Search Technique, including the uge of real-time computer and programmable calculator statistical averaging procedures, wild be employed to detarmine the efficacy of the discrete approach applied to problems of interest to the client. ¥ Phage 2@ (Continuum Search Technique) Ag in the Discrete Search Technique, a number of so-called "“dawsing" approaches have been identified in the paychoenargeticgs Literature ag having some validity in determining the location of targets of interest. In the "dowsing" approach, the area of interest containing the target is "examined" by peychoenergetic means on a continuum basis to determine the location of the Bpecific targat. In the “map dawsing" versian of these approaches, direct access to the area Of interast ig not required, and therefore the approach lends itsel# ta the types of applications of interest to the client, A number of these approaches mill be evaluated under Laboratoary- controlled conditions to determine their applicability to client needs. Phase 3 (Teast) Following an SRI evaluation of the various techniques that shou promise in Phages lo and 8, a subset will bea chosen for deamonatration Of feasibility to the client, with targets under control of the Client. Appropriate statistical analyses mill be performed to a Finalize the overall evaluation. Estimated costs P| Approved FooRelpase 2000101083 AER FQ feo 15001 20049-7
