STATEMENT OF WORK: PSYCHOENERGETICS
(THREAT TO US AND POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS)
1. General
The objective of this effort is to investigate in detail certain
psychoenergetic phenomena that have potential military applications.
Emphasis will be on evaluating application potential and limitations of
such phenomena, and to provide such knowledge as gained under this
contract to appropriate DoD agencies who will evaluate the significance of
foreign work, particularly as it may pose a threat to the US.
Major emphasis will be .on evaluating remote viewing phenomena and in
particular, targeting aspects, via coordinate or other methods. Related to
this are training methods, methods of enhancing | reliability and repeat-
ability of the phenomena.
2.0 Specific Tasks (FY 81)
2.1 Train two selected Army personnel in the new six phase remote viewing
technique and two monitors.
speech
2.2 Determine if each. and auditory analysis techniques can be used
to calibrate descriptions provided during operational remote viewing sessions.
2.3 Develop a training program on tracking techniques.
2.4 Initiate studies to determine if physiological monitoring cn
be used to calibrate accuracy of descriptions provided during operational
remote viewing sessions.

2.5 The following tasks will be performed to assist in evaluating
foreign work:
2.5.1
Simulate and evaluate foreign remote viewing investigations.

2.5.2 Describe the potential of RV to: assess secure facilities, serve
as communication mechanism, explore resolution ability,fresolve alpha-numeric
targets.
2.5.3 Explore resolution ability of RV for objects and symbols.
2.5.4 Determine if secured data can be accessed, determine the
limitations of remote viewing, predict future events, locate objects,

2.6
The following task will be undertaken to explore the applications
potential of remote viewing:
2.6.1 Evaluate the use of remote viewing to locate target objects or
people.
2.6.2 Evaluate the use of remote viewing for event detection and to
locate events.
2.6.3 Evaluate the use of remote viewing for vectoring or tracking.
2.6.4 Evaluate the use of remote viewing to detect the presence or
absence of targets.
2.6.5 Evaluate the potential of camouflage, concealment and deception
as countermeasures to remote viewing.
2.6.6 Investigate the effects of the following variables on the
remote viewing phenomena. (a) accuracy. (b) degree of resolution,
(c) affect the sensory inputs (feel, smell, touch, etc.)
2.6.7 Other areas relating directly to the application of the
phenomena to operational targets would include (a) methods of enhancements,-'
(b) targeting aspects (coordinates, other abstracts, places names, etc.) ,
(c) potential data errors, (d) training and selection of sensors.

3.2
Remote viewing will be applied to operational targets and the
results evaluated in regard to accuracy, timeliness, types of target
and size of target.
3.3
Work on contermeasures will be continued and the detection
of remote viewers at the target will be attempted.
3.4
Apply knowledge gained in FY 81, relative to detection of
nuclear material and events, to real operational targets. Additional
specific tasks for FY 82 will be issued in the last quarter of FY 81
and will be based largely on results of work done in FY 81.
4.0
Specific task (FY 83)
Additional Specific task for FY 83 will be issued in the last
quarter of FY 82 and be largely determined by the results of work in
FY 81 and 82.
4.1
Many of the factors that enhance or inhibit various
psychoenergetic phenomena will have been explored during the first and
second year concerning applying the phenomena to operational = intelligence
targets. During the fiscal year the emphasis will be on incorporating
and integrating the phenomena into the intelligence process.
4.2
Selection and training criteria for remote viewers will be
fully developed.
4.3 Interpretation of data derived from the remote viewing by
intelligence analysts.
4.4 Ways to integrate remote viewing data into the intelligence
cycle will be developed.
4.5 Ways and means of incorporating remote viewing phenomena into
military operations will be investigated.
5.
Specific Requirements
5.1
Approximately thirty-three (33) percent of the overall effort
should be directed to satisfying tasks on analytical techniques and
training subjects.

will be completed by the contractor.
7.2 A final report at the conclusion of the contract will be
submitted.
8. The principal Contractor Monitor will be the single point of
contract for both the contractors and participants. He will relay the
requirements to the contractor and provide the results to the funding
participants.

the contracting participants of significant events, accomplishments,
and problems associated with the progress of work. The report shall
represent a narrative summary of the work underway and shall be prepared
to address the topics outlined below. Any of the topics below may be
covered noting such comments as "none", "not applicable", or "no
significant changes when appropriate. (The report shall not be used
to document technical progress or contain technical charts, graphs,
or formulas. Such data belong in technical reports )

written in nontechnical terms, of any findings or accomplishments that
should be brought to the attention of the contracting agency or DIA
management shall be included under this topic. The accomplishment
of major milestones or the occurrence of technological breakthroughs
shall be reported.

FUTURE PANS. A brief statement of any significant Change which
is planned in the course of the work or any new item considered to
be of interest to management shall be included under this topic.
A.
TECHNICAL REPORTS.
1. These reports will present a concise and factual discussion
of technical findings and accomplishments during the period. The
report should be of technical publication quality, including appropriate
subject matter reference.
2. Each Technical Report will include a report summary. This
summary, prominently identified, should normally not exceed a few
pages. The purpose of the projects must be specified, together with
a description of important equipment purchased or developed, if any,
and the conclusions reached by the contractor. The most important
single feature of this summary is that it must be meaningful to readers
who are not specialists in the subject matter of the contract.
The requirement for careful preparation cannot be overemphasized
as this summary will often provide the basis for decision on the
continuity of the project. The contractor must recognize that his
achievements are quite often surveyed by Department of Defense staff
who function at a level that precludes a thorough review of detailed
reports.
Where appropriate, references should be made to more detailed
sections of the report in order to guide those who may be prepared to
spend the additional time required to develop a more complete and
professional understanding of the accomplishments.
The report summary should include the following information for
each major portion of the work:
1.
Technical problem.
2. General methodology (e.g., literature review, laboratory
experiment, survey, field study, etc.).
3. Technical results.
4.
Implications for further research (if any) .
5.
Special comments ( if any) .
