This was due to the prohibition imposed by the U.S. Congress. All work and contract funds for DIA and Army were accomplished using R&D funds. Army's chief interest was dictated by the fact that they have an operational unit, hence, training was a large item in their budget. Developing a ways of selecting individuals who have a high potential to do remote viewing>? WAI -1 w?--re also investigated. The Army also sponsored work to determine if ELF " 1+1 fluctuations have an impact on the quality of remote viewing data. The DIA funds were from DRE and were used to continue research in various Grill Flame areas. As DIA and Army had, until this year, totally depended on one training program, it became apparent that new ones needed werv474 to be developed. Therefore, two new training procedures were iniated. Also, within the remote viewing area, research was directed at improving the quality of the data. In the PK area, some foreign research was duplicated and preliminary investigations on countermeasures were accomplished. A major emphasis in FY 1984 was placed on authentication and veri- fication of the remote viewing phenomena. In the first three years of the Grill Flame program, the research was centered on developing remote viewing training programs, improving the quality of remote viewing data and looking at some of the variables that could affect its quality. During the past year, statistics were developed that could be applied to remote viewing data and a measure of its success could be obtained. If the data are favorable, FY 1985 will begin the incorporation of a remote serve as a model for the incorporation of additional units nto the DoD. dur[0o{' 1 SECRET Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788r001300340001-1 r SG1A SG1A - SG1A Approved For Release 2000/08/07S EG-RH6-00788r001300340001-1 Prior to establishing an in-house capability, several items must be in place. First, you must be able to select individuals with good remote viewing potential. Then you must be able to train that ability to the point where useful data can be produced. You must also have a variety of targeting methods and a set procedure to evaluate the resultant data. Finally, you must have an automated data base that allows you to store and manipulate large volumes of information. While research on several of these areas will be continued into FY 1985 and beyond, enough data now exists to begin work on establishing an in-house DoD program. In addition to replicating and evaluating foreign psychoenergetics research, Reports completed to date on each of the tasks in- vestigated in FY 1984 are available. B. FY 1984 Psychoenergetics Program Following are the task sheets, including task descriptions, for each of the program areas under investigation.

The procedure focuses on improving the reliability of remote viewing by controlling those factors that tend to introduce noise into the RV product. A broad overview of the procedure, which has been derived empirically on the basis of a decade of investigation into the RV process, is presented in the documents below. The basic components of this procedure consist of: (1) Repeated target-address (coordinate) presentation, with quick-reaction response by the remote viewer (to minimize imaginative overlays). (2) The use of a specially-designed, acoustic-tiled, featureless homogeneously-colored viewing chamber (to minimize environmental overlays). (3) The adoption of a strictly-prescribed, limited interviewer patter (to minimize interviewer overlay). At this stage of near completion of the development, the RV training procedure proceeds through a series of six stages of proficiency, hypothe- sized to correspond to six stages of increased contact with the target site. The stages are outlined in the table below. In a given remote viewing session, an experienced remote viewer tends to recapitulate the six stages in order. H. E.

Using techniques developed by viewer 009, four individuals will contribute 30-50 RV trials each using National Geographic photographs as targets. Theory and exercises will emphasize the use of abstract targeting techniques (as opposed to geographical coordinates). Following a procedure first outlined by R. Jahn, Princeton University, RV analysis will be computer automated to provide a measure of training performance.

This technique, while not complete, represents the best automated procedure to date. It provides a statistically meaningful score for each individual remote viewing session. From the personality assessment perspective, we plan to adopt the Personality Assessment System (PAS), developed by Winne and Gittinger. The PAS provides a quantitative measure of personality derived from performance on the WAIS. Specif.-experiments include the following: 1. Administer the WAIS and MBTI to as many of the past "calibrated" RVers as possible to determine if there is "grouping" of good performance in PAS space. 2. Administer the WAIS and MBTI to all the RV trainees. 3. Predict, on the basis of 1. above, RV performance of the trainees.

Tasking SRI International has been tasked during the FY'81-'83 period to work toward the development of RV enhancement procedures that accommodate DoD needs. Of particular interest are the development of procedures that can be transmitted to others in a structured fashion (i.e., "training" procedures), and that can be used in targeting on distant sites of military or intelligence significance. b. Six-Stage RV Enhancement Procedure At the beginning of the DIA/Army Joint Services Program (FY'81), SRI, in conjunction with its sponsors, made a decision to go forward with developing and codifying the most promising RV enhancement procedure that had emerged from earlier work, a six-stage training procedure developed by SRI consultant I. Swann. The procedure focuses on improving reliability of remote viewing by controlling those factors that tend to introduce noise into the RV product. The basic components of this procedure consists of (1) repeated target-address (e.g., coordinate) presentation, with quick-reaction response by the remote viewer to minimize developing imaginative overlays, (2) the use of a specially- designed, acoustic-tiled, featureless, homogeneously-colored viewing chamber, to minimize environmental overlays, and (3) the adoption of a strictly- prescribed, limited interviewer patter to minimize interviewer overlay. A broad overview of the procedure, derived empirically on the basis of a decade of investigation into the RV process, is presented in Ref. 1.* At this stage of near-completion of the development, the RV training procedure proceeds through a series of six stages of proficiency hypothesized to correspond to six stages of increased contact with the target site. These are outlined in Table 1. In a given remote viewing session an experienced remote viewer tends to recapitulate the six stages in order. Ref. 1: H. E.

In response to this re- quirement, SRI has pursued application tasks that were of interest to the intelligence community, and have responded to-quick-reaction requirements set by representatives monitoring the progress of the work. The format for carrying out these tasks is as follows. A request for information concernin a tar et site is t an itted_b_the client -to the DIA representative the int Service Program COT) in residence at SRI. He then provides targeting information e.g., coordinates) to an SRI RV session monitor at the start of a session. This monitor then works with a remote viewer to obtain data. In this format, SRI personnel are kept blind to the source of the request, and to the type of site or event of interest. In some cases, the COTR is present during the RV session, or he may.even conduct the session himself. In an effort to determine whether a remote viewer is "on line" before attempting an operational task, a presession calibration trial is carried out on a site for which feedback materials (e.g., National Geographic magazines, travel brochures) are available to the session monitor. If the results indicate a useful level of RV functioning, the operational task is engaged; if not, the task is aborted. In like fashion, a postsession calibration trial is carried out to provide a check on whether the viewer remained "on line" during the operational task. Evaluation protocols were developed for use by analysts to provide numerical estimates of various aspects of the RV product generated in operational RV tasks. The returned protocols constitute the basis for contractor evaluation, feedback to the remote viewer, and as an input for the computerized data-base management (DBM.). The evaluation protocols submitted to the analysts for their completion are provided in Appendix D of the below footnoted document. The contractor has completed development of a computerized data-base management system to handle this material. This system, programmed on a stand-alone LSI 11/23 system, provides a library/catalog function of data- base readout by date, site, viewer, and so forth, along with the capability of yielding trend analysis functions.

Examples range from the location of people or equipment in a building complex to the position of a facility or weapons delivery system in a strategic context. The search task is therefore directed at determining the location of objects, individuals, systems and facilities on scales covering, e.g., room-size to global dimensions. This task lends itself to two standard psychoenergetics approaches; they are: (1) Discrete Search Technique. In the Discrete Search Technique, the target area of interest (e.g., room, globe) is divided up into a series of "zones" or "grid squares," one of which is assumed to contain the target of interest. A statistical procedure (e.g., error- correcting coding, sequential sampling) is then used to statistically average a series of "guesses" to determine in which of the "zones" or "grid squares" the target of interest is contained. It has been shown in previous work that such a procedure can in principle yield high-reliability results with operators of relatively modest expertise, and a pilot series of trials involving the location of an individual and the location of ammunition was successful. Several forms of the Discrete Search Technique, including the use of real-time computer and programmable calculator statistical averaging procedures, are to be considered to determine the efficacy of the discrete approach applied to problems of interest to the client. (2) Continuum Search Technique. As in the Discrete Search Technique, a number of so-called "dowsing" approaches have been identified in the psychoenergetics literature as 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 psycho- energetic means on a continuum basis to determine the location of the specific target. In the "map-dowsing" version of these approaches, direct access to the area of -interest is not required, and therefore the approach lends itself to the types of applications of interest to the client. A number of these approaches are to be considered to determine their applicability to client needs.

This was done to stay within the U.S. Congress guidelines that prohibited GDIP funds being spent on psychoenergetics projects. The arrival of money at SRI to fund the research and training comes, very often, late in the fiscal year. This past fiscal year was typical in that a portion of the money arrived comparably early and part did not arrive until the fiscal year had been completed. The problems this creates have been presented many times in the past. CONTRACTS (1) DIA (via DRE via ASG) $600K (2) DIA (Intelligence) 79K (3) Army G 486K 1. RV Enhancement $ 85K 2.

These are summarized in the following table. Complete documentation is available and can be obtained through proper channels on a need to know basis. SG1A OPERATIONAL RV TASKS (FY 1984) It should be noted that both of these operational tasks were of the search variety rather than the standard remote viewing. Search is the inverse of the usual remote viewing tasks, that is, the viewer must pro- vide the location of the target rather than being given a location and asked for a description. The methodology for performing search task was under investigation throughout fiscal year 1984. It is anticipated that as the procedure is better understood the quality of the data will improve with development as has been observed for remote viewing.

The DIA program for FY 1985 will be comprised of the following units: (1) Funds Remaining from FY 1984 $155K (2) Threat Assessment Funds 79K (3) FY 1984 Targeting Task 25K (4) Army Surgeon General Funds 500K During fiscal year 1985, the Army in-house remote viewing group will hAt~ N be transfered to DIA. The $155K remaining from FY 1984 will be used to initiate and continue the training of those personnel. The threat assess- ~sto y~ ment funds will be used to follow developments in foreign countries. The $25K for targeting will again look at the various methods that may be used to access a site.
