(S) Dr. Karlis Osis (PhD in psychology) was a research colleague of Dr. J. B. Rhine from 1951-57. He also worked with Eileen Garrett from 1957-62. He was the Director of Research at the American Society for Psychical Research from 1962-75 where he investigated the relationships among ESP, meditation and altered states of consciousness. Dr. Osis has been interviewed (unofficially by LT Atwater) and is now involved in remote viewing (he uses the terms out-of-body experiences and clairvoyance) experiments in which he monitors various biophysical changes during the remote viewing experi- ment. Brain wave frequency and amplitude, psychogalvanic skin response, respiration, random eye movement and pulse rate are among the variables measured during his experiments. He stated that there does appear to be some statistical correlation between various biophysical states and successful remote view- ing. FILE COPY 2.
