~ReffiyWWRelease 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789ROO2600090003-2 RECOMMENDATIONS: EXTENSIONS TO FY 1991 The following recommendations for extending the Statement of Work (SOW) for FY 1992 are based upon the anticipated results from the FY 1991 experiments. The numbering scheme matches that of the SOW 6.1 Long Term Research Plan Done. 6.2 Basic Research Research that is primarily focused toward the mechanisms of anomalous mental phenomena is defined as basic research. 6.2.1 Magnetoencehpalograph (MEG) Using the same basic experiment protocol as the FY 1991 study, examine the effect of a "sender" in' a-phase shifts resulting from remote stimuli. 6.2.2 Data Patterns/Correlations 6.2.2.1 Change of Entropy (AS)-Improve the AS of the MEG stimulus and determine of the a-phase shift effect sizes improve. 6.2.2.2 AS Experiment-Done. 6.2.2.3 Geomagnetic Fluctuations (GMF)-Based upon GMF-Anomalous Cognition (AC) correla- tions, design and conduct an AC experiment to verify the correlation with new AC data. 6.2.2.4 AC Correlations Literature Search-Donc. 6.2.3 Theoretical Issues 6.2.3.1 Theoretical Constructs-Task the identified physicists to explore potential transmission mech- anisms for AS or other special wave phenomena. 6.2.3.2 Thrgeting (1) Meta-analysis of sendertno sender condition-Done. (2) Design and conduct pilot trials for Ganzfeld experiment to test sender/no sender condition- Done. Conduct enough formal trials in the Ganzefeld (i.e., approximately 400) to specify conclusively the sender requirement in AC-Ganzfeld experiments. 6.2.3.3 Communications (1) Meta-analysis- Done. (2) Pilot. Experiment -Done.
