Approved For Release 2000/08/09 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000600310001-7 SECRET C. Replication Efforts (S) (S/NF) The results generated in the DoD Psychoenergetics Program by the prime contractor (SRI International) in both the remote viewing (RV) and remote action (RA) areas have found wide replication in several other laboratories across the country, notably at Princeton University under the leadership of Dr. Robert Jahn, Dean of the School of Engineering/ Applied Science. (See Appendices A and B for open literature papers on the original SRI work and Princeton replication efforts.) Following is a summary of replication efforts in both the RV and RA areas. (1) Remote Viewing. A recent survey of the literature on the remote viewing of geographical locations found twenty-eight published formal experimental series. More than half of these (fifteen) were successful, where only one in twenty would be expected by chance. The major successful replicating studies include research efforts at SRI International, Princeton University, Institute for Parapsychology (Durham, NC), Mundelein College (Chicago), and the University of California at Davis. A bibliography of these studies is included as Appendix C. (2) Remote Action. A recent survey of the literature describing apparent perturbation of electronic- diode- or radioactive-decay-driven random number generators found 48 published papers on 214 formal replication attempts. Of these 214 experiments, 74 were successful, where again only one in twenty would be expected by chance. Major successful replicating studies include, in addition to a large unpublished study by SRI International, research efforts at Princeton University, Mind Science Foundation (San Antonio), Maimonides Medical Center (Brooklyn), Psychophysical Research Laboratory (Princeton), Syracuse University, and Bell Laboratories (Columbus). A bibliography of these studies is included as Appendix D. The above studies, carried out under a variety of conditions by numerous researchers at a large number of laboratories, indicate that certain of the remote viewing and remote action effects are robust and repeatable phenomena that can be replicated on a broad scale. 2 Approved For Release 2000/08/09 : cK EREB2000600310001-7
