5.4 (S/NF) Some of the experiments/investigations required to fulfill
this contract may require participation of select government personnel. All
such investigations will be fully planned and coordinated with the COTR and
will be under the purviews of the SOC and the Human Use Review Committee.
5.5 (U) Should unforseen schedule of other issues arise concerning
any of the specific tasks identified in section 6.0, the CO-I'R will be given
immediate notice. If necessary, adjustments to priorities and schedules can
be approved by the CUIR if there is no cost or other impact on the over-all
program. The CMR will also review/approve all anticipated research
protocols.
5.6 (U) All items in sections 6.0 and 7.0 will be funded from R&D
funding provided by this contract, and shall be expended NLT 18 months after
contract award. Accounting procedures to clearly identify the R&D
expenditures shall be implemented by the contractor.
5.7 (U) Terms of reference and additional task details are on file by
the COMB and will be provided to the contractor to insure adequate task
understanding. This material is contained in DIA publication DT-S-1007-S,
29 NOV 1990.
6.0 (S/NF) EF'C TASKS:
6.1 (U) Basic Research:
6.1.1 (U) Biophysical Measurements (Follow-on to SOW 6.3.1 in
PR 330/012Z/91):
6.1.1.1 (S/NF) Determine how magnetoen ephalograph (NW)
measurements correlate with counterpart electroencephalograph (EEG) data.
This effort will assist in simplifying over all brain wave masurement
activity, will form the initial phases of the larger data base required for
establishing statistical significance, and will assist in screening/
selection.
6.1.1.2 (C) Perform refined NIDG data analysis for
individuals involved in the previous effort for the purpose of isolating
neurophysical parameters that correlate with anomalous performances. This
analysis will use new/improved statistical procedures not available in
previous efforts.
6.2 (U) Data Patterns/Correlations (Follow-on to SCSI 6.3.2 of
PR 330/012Z/91):
6.2.1 (C) Extend analysis of sender/no sender analyses to
include new statistical evaluation methods involving artificial intelligence
procedures for high performance candidates identified during the previous
effort. Develop implications regarding target-individual match.

6.2.2 (U) Examine all relevant MEN/EB data and worldwide
anomalous cognition research to identify performance testing/patterns and to
help isolate key physical/psychological/biciahysical parameters.
6.3 (U) Applied Research (Follow-on to SOW 6.2.3.3 in PR 330/012Z/91):
6.3.1 (S/NF) Conduct long distance anomalous ccmmi.cation
experiments that involve leading candidates identified in previous research.
The key variable will be location, and will involve controlled sites
selected by the OOTR.
6.4 (U) Theoretical Issues (Follow-on to SOW 6.2.5 in PR 330/012Z/91):
6.4.1 (U) Perform anomalous phenomena experiments in the
presence of select sensitive instrumentation that may help identify
underlying physical parameters. Pilot work should include an off-the-shelf
Mossbaur device.
6.4.2 (U) Identify physical mechanism models for anomalous
cognition and develop protocols for testable experiments using select
individuals.
6.5 (U) Research Methodology (Follow-on to SOW 6.4 of PR 330/012Z/91):
6.5.1 (U) Provide appropriate research methodology support to
include reviews/approvals by the established Scientific oversight Camnittee,
the Policy Board and the Human Use Review Panel for the follow-on activity.
6.5.2 (S/NF) Provide appropriate management support and
appropriate project research support activity to include document
preparation, administration, and all project associated travel for
contractor personnel, consultants, and other experts. This task includes
research methodology assessment of related worldwide activity to search for
new scientifically-sound approaches. Select conference attendenae or
sponsorship may also be required to identify new methodologies.
7.0 (U) QUICK SICK CAPABU Y ( C): The contractor will maintain a
quick response capability and be prepared to respond in less than 24 hours
to problems or unexpected demands for brief technical papers that may be
developed during the term of this project.
