Approved For Release THR bid noP96-00788R001 800210001-0 (U) PSYCHOENERGETIC APPLICATIONS (S/NF) For the purpose of this document, specific psychoenergetic applications have been ascribed to one of the three major categories, ranging from "observed" to "possible" to "theoretical," according to the degree to which the psi phenomena underlying these applications have been verified in the laboratory (see Tables B-1 and B-2). (S/NF) The "observed" category encompasses those applications for which underlying psi phenomena have been scientifically established. Furthermore, this classification pertains only to those applications that have been implemented operationally and can be assessed according to the reliability categories of "often successful," "occasionally successful," and "rarely successful." The psi phenomenon of coordinate remote viewing (CRV), for example, has been verified in the laboratory and has been applied subsequently to a variety of operational situations. A hierarchy of specific examples that demonstrate the comparative reliability of "observed" CRV applications are as follows: (1) The overall external characteristics and spatial relationships of foreign facilities have often been successfully obtained. (2) The types of overall activity internal to a foreign facility have occasionally been obtained successfully. (3) Highly analytical information such as the identifica- tion of hidden/secret codes and ciphers within a security system have been only rarely obtained successfully. (S/NF) The "possible" category encompasses those applications for which underlying psi phenomena have been established scientifically, but which have yet to be implemented operationally. As stated above, CRV has been verified in the laboratory, but it has yet to be applied, for example, to such camouflage, concealment, and deception (CC&D) tasks as detecting which USSR silos have operative missiles and which are empty. 51 —SECRET— Approved For Release 2002/05/17 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001800210001-0
