Parapsychology Studies
Soviets Possibly Lead US in Applied Parapsychology Studies.
A review of Soviet literature indicates that in the 1960s the Soviets initiated an
objective, rational and scientific investigation into the following areas: 1) electro-
statics of telekinesis, 2) extremely low frequencies of electromagnetic radiation for
information transmission, 3) application of information theory and cybernetic theory to
the biophysics of parapsychology, 4) the construction of remote physiological monitors,
5) the psychophysiology of novel methods of stimulation, and 6) high frequency analysis
of short EEG segments.
After one
or two initial cogent articles in each area, no more open
literature information was published. In some cases the
investigator seems to have ceased publishing in open
literature. There is no evidence in the open literature
as to whether the research efforts were terminated, or if
they have been continued covertly. (S)

Comment: The initial, few cogent articles published
during the 1960s reveal that this research was comparable
to US state-of-the-art during the past 2 or 3 years. If
the Soviets continued this research and were to
some
extent successful, it is possible that they could
be
ahead of the US in parapsychology. Previous reports have
indicated that the Soviet military and KGB have had a
covert applied parapsychology program since the mid-
1960s. The above evaluation suggests that such a program
would be staffed by competent scientists who are capable
of uncovering, developing and fully exploiting the ap-
plied aspects of parapsychological phenomena.
In the USSR, the field of parapsychology includes
such areas as remote physiological monitoring and psycho-
physiology, which are included in other scientific dis-
.ciplines in the West. The inclusion of these disciplines-
apparently gives credibility to parapsychological re-
- search and helps Soviet scientists to investigate such
"paranormal" phenomena as
telepathy and telekinesis
("mentally" moving objects). Several independent US lab-
oratories recently have demonstrated the existence of
paranormal phenomena. Such phenomena may have intel-
ligence applications.
