In FY 1984, no GDIP funds were spent in the Grill Flame Program. This
was due to the prohibition imposed by the U.S. Congress. All work and
contract funds for DIA and Army were accomplished using R&D funds. Army's
chief interest was dictated by the fact that they have an operational
unit, hence, training was a large item in their budget. Developing a

fluctuations have an impact on the quality of remote viewing data.
The DIA funds were from DRE and were used to continue research in
various Grill Flame areas. As DIA and Army had, until this year, totally
depended on one training program, it became apparent that new ones needed

to be developed. Therefore, two new training procedures were iniated.
Also, within the remote viewing area, research was directed at improving
the quality of the data. In the PK area, some foreign research was
duplicated and preliminary investigations on countermeasures were
accomplished.
A major emphasis in FY 1984 was placed on authentication and veri-
fication of the remote viewing phenomena. In the first three years of
the Grill Flame program, the research was centered on developing remote
viewing training programs, improving the quality of remote viewing data
and looking at some of the variables that could affect its quality.
During the past year, statistics were developed that could be applied to
remote viewing data and a measure of its success could be obtained. If
the data are favorable, FY 1985 will begin the incorporation of a remote

Prior to establishing an in-house capability, several items must be
in place. First, you must be able to select individuals with good remote
viewing potential. Then you must be able to train that ability to the
point where useful data can be produced. You must also have a variety
of targeting methods and a set procedure to evaluate the resultant data.
Finally, you must have an automated data base that allows you to store
and manipulate large volumes of information. While research on several
of these areas will be continued into FY 1985 and beyond, enough data now
exists to begin work on establishing an in-house DoD program.

research,

Verbal Description of Project
At the beginning of the DIA/Army Joint Services Program (FY 1981)
SRI, in conjunction with its sponsors, made a decision to develop and
codify the most promising RV enhancement procedure that had emerged from
earlier work--a six stage coordinate remote viewing training procedure
developed by SRI Consultant Mr. Ingo Swann. The procedure focuses on
improving the reliability of remote viewing by controlling those factors
that tend to introduce noise into the RV product. A broad overview of the
procedure, which has been derived empirically on the basis of a decade
of investigation into the RV process, is presented in the documents below.
The basic components of this procedure consist of:
(1) Repeated target-address (coordinate) presentation,
with quick-reaction response by the remote viewer
(to minimize imaginative overlays).
(2) The use of a specially-designed, acoustic-tiled,
featureless homogeneously-colored viewing chamber
(to minimize environmental overlays).
(3) The adoption of a strictly-prescribed, limited
interviewer patter (to minimize interviewer overlay).
At this stage of near completion of the development, the RV training
procedure proceeds through a series of six stages of proficiency, hypothe-
sized to correspond to six stages of increased contact with the target
site. The stages are outlined in the table below. In a given remote
viewing session, an experienced remote viewer tends to recapitulate the
six stages in order.

The Alternate Training Task is designed to demonstrate that remote viewing (RV) may
be taught to naive individuals. Using techniques developed by viewer 009, four
individuals will contribute 30-50 RV trials each using National Geographic photographs
as targets. Theory and exercises will emphasize the use of abstract targeting techniques
(as opposed to geographical coordinates). Following a procedure first outlined by R.
Jahn, Princeton University, RV analysis will be computer automated to provide a
measure of training performance.

Verbal Description of Project
Screening/Selection Task:
The overall view is to develop independent measures of personality and remote viewing
skill and to determine if a correlation between them exists.
rc1
From the remote viewing perspective, we plan to adopt the Priceton gbup s automated
judging procedure. This technique, while not complete, represents the best automated
procedure to date. It provides a statistically meaningful score for each individual remote
viewing session.
From the personality assessment perspective, we plan to adopt the Personality
Assessment System (PAS), developed by Winne and Gittinger. The PAS provides a
quantitative measure of personality derived from performance on the WAIS.
Specif.-experiments include the following:
1. Administer the WAIS and MBTI to as many of the past "calibrated"
RVers as possible to determine if there is "grouping" of good
performance in PAS space.
2. Administer the WAIS and MBTI to all the RV trainees.
3. Predict, on the basis of 1. above, RV performance of the trainees.

Description of Training Procedure
a. Tasking
SRI International has been tasked during the FY'81-'83 period to work
toward the development of RV enhancement procedures that accommodate DoD needs.
Of particular interest are the development of procedures that can be transmitted
to others in a structured fashion (i.e., "training" procedures), and that can
be used in targeting on distant sites of military or intelligence significance.
b. Six-Stage RV Enhancement Procedure
At the beginning of the DIA/Army Joint Services Program (FY'81), SRI, in
conjunction with its sponsors, made a decision to go forward with developing
and codifying the most promising RV enhancement procedure that had emerged from
earlier work, a six-stage training procedure developed by SRI consultant
I. Swann. The procedure focuses on improving reliability of remote viewing by
controlling those factors that tend to introduce noise into the RV product.
The basic components of this procedure consists of (1) repeated target-address
(e.g., coordinate) presentation, with quick-reaction response by the remote
viewer to minimize developing imaginative overlays, (2) the use of a specially-
designed, acoustic-tiled, featureless, homogeneously-colored viewing chamber,
to minimize environmental overlays, and (3) the adoption of a strictly-
prescribed, limited interviewer patter to minimize interviewer overlay. A
broad overview of the procedure, derived empirically on the basis of a decade
of investigation into the RV process, is presented in Ref. 1.*
At this stage of near-completion of the development, the RV
training procedure proceeds through a series of six stages of
proficiency hypothesized to correspond to six stages of increased
contact with the target site. These are outlined in Table 1. In a
given remote viewing session an experienced remote viewer tends to
recapitulate the six stages in order.

Verbal Description of the Project
The purpose of the FY 1984 Evaluation project is threefold: to refine
further the RV Evaluation procedures developed in FYs 1981 through 1983,
to develop additional RV procedures to assist in quantifying the RV product,
and to evaluate additional raw data as it is generated.
The foundation procedures upon which further development will proceed
are two: a 0 - 3 point Accuracy Rating Scale (attached), which can be
used to provide a "bottom-line" assessment of the accuracy/quality of
individual elements in a transcript, or.of the transcript as a whole; and
a concept-by-concept evaluation procedure, which leads to a weighted
average overall score.

Verbal Description of the Project
To meet program objectives, one of SRI's tasks is to investigate U.S.
capabilities in applied RV, both to determine the potential for application
in U.S. efforts, and to provide data that is useful in assessing the threat
potential of corresponding Soviet applications. In response to this re-
quirement, SRI has pursued application tasks that were of interest to the
intelligence community, and have responded to-quick-reaction requirements
set by representatives monitoring the progress of the work.
The format for carrying out these tasks is as follows. A request
for information concernin a tar et site is t an itted_b_the client -to
the DIA representative the int Service Program COT)
in residence at SRI. He then provides targeting information e.g.,
coordinates) to an SRI RV session monitor at the start of a session. This
monitor then works with a remote viewer to obtain data. In this format,
SRI personnel are kept blind to the source of the request, and to the
type of site or event of interest. In some cases, the COTR is present
during the RV session, or he may.even conduct the session himself.
In an effort to determine whether a remote viewer is "on line"
before attempting an operational task, a presession calibration trial is
carried out on a site for which feedback materials (e.g., National
Geographic magazines, travel brochures) are available to the session
monitor. If the results indicate a useful level of RV functioning, the
operational task is engaged; if not, the task is aborted. In like
fashion, a postsession calibration trial is carried out to provide a check
on whether the viewer remained "on line" during the operational task.
Evaluation protocols were developed for use by analysts to provide
numerical estimates of various aspects of the RV product generated in
operational RV tasks. The returned protocols constitute the basis for
contractor evaluation, feedback to the remote viewer, and as an input
for the computerized data-base management (DBM.). The evaluation protocols
submitted to the analysts for their completion are provided in Appendix D
of the below footnoted document.
The contractor has completed development of a computerized data-base
management system to handle this material. This system, programmed on a
stand-alone LSI 11/23 system, provides a library/catalog function of data-
base readout by date, site, viewer, and so forth, along with the capability
of yielding trend analysis functions.

Verbal Description of Project
A continuing requirement in operational RV is the determination of
the location of tactical and strategic targets of interest whose positions
are not known a priori. Examples range from the location of people or
equipment in a building complex to the position of a facility or weapons
delivery system in a strategic context. The search task is therefore
directed at determining the location of objects, individuals, systems and
facilities on scales covering, e.g., room-size to global dimensions.
This task lends itself to two standard psychoenergetics approaches;
they are:
(1) Discrete Search Technique. In the Discrete Search
Technique, the target area of interest (e.g., room,
globe) is divided up into a series of "zones" or "grid
squares," one of which is assumed to contain the target
of interest. A statistical procedure (e.g., error-
correcting coding, sequential sampling) is then used
to statistically average a series of "guesses" to
determine in which of the "zones" or "grid squares"
the target of interest is contained. It has been shown
in previous work that such a procedure can in principle
yield high-reliability results with operators of
relatively modest expertise, and a pilot series of
trials involving the location of an individual and the
location of ammunition was successful. Several forms
of the Discrete Search Technique, including the use of
real-time computer and programmable calculator statistical
averaging procedures, are to be considered to determine
the efficacy of the discrete approach applied to problems
of interest to the client.
(2) Continuum Search Technique. As in the Discrete Search
Technique, a number of so-called "dowsing" approaches have
been identified in the psychoenergetics literature as
having some validity in determining the location of targets
of interest. In the "dowsing" approach, the area of
interest containing the target is "examined" by psycho-
energetic means on a continuum basis to determine the
location of the specific target. In the "map-dowsing"
version of these approaches, direct access to the area of
-interest is not required, and therefore the approach lends
itself to the types of applications of interest to the
client. A number of these approaches are to be considered
to determine their applicability to client needs.

In FY 1984 all funding for psychoenergetics research comes from
non-GDIP sources. This was done to stay within the U.S. Congress guidelines
that prohibited GDIP funds being spent on psychoenergetics projects.
The arrival of money at SRI to fund the research and training comes,
very often, late in the fiscal year. This past fiscal year was typical
in that a portion of the money arrived comparably early and part did not
arrive until the fiscal year had been completed. The problems this creates
have been presented many times in the past.

The above tasks' budgets were the planned budgets. Some alterations
were made during the fiscal year, but these adjustments were not signifi-
cant except in the targeting task. This task was postponed until fiscal
year 1985.
The total contract funds for DIA tasks in FY 1984 were $600K.
However, $155K was retained for training in FY 1985. The DIA budget
then has been partially determined for 1985. It will be as follows:
Training $155K
Targeting 25K
Intelligence 79K
Total $259K

Throughout fiscal year 1984, SRI was asked to look at several opera-
tional sites. These are summarized in the following table. Complete
documentation is available and can be obtained through proper channels on
a need to know basis.
SG1A
OPERATIONAL RV TASKS
(FY 1984)
It should be noted that both of these operational tasks were of the
search variety rather than the standard remote viewing. Search is the
inverse of the usual remote viewing tasks, that is, the viewer must pro-
vide the location of the target rather than being given a location and
asked for a description. The methodology for performing search task was
under investigation throughout fiscal year 1984. It is anticipated that
as the procedure is better understood the quality of the data will improve
with development as has been observed for remote viewing.

IV FISCAL YEAR 1985 PSYCHOENERGETICS PROGRAM
The DIA is still prohibited to spend GDIP funds to accomplish psycho-
energetics research. The DIA program for FY 1985 will be comprised of
the following units:
(1) Funds Remaining from FY 1984 $155K
(2) Threat Assessment Funds 79K
(3) FY 1984 Targeting Task 25K
(4) Army Surgeon General Funds 500K
During fiscal year 1985, the Army in-house remote viewing group will
hAt~ N
be transfered to DIA. The $155K remaining from FY 1984 will be used to
initiate and continue the training of those personnel. The threat assess- ~sto y~
ment funds will be used to follow developments in foreign countries. The
$25K for targeting will again look at the various methods that may be used
to access a site. With the $500K from the Army Surgeon General's office
the DIA will be able to both continue to look at areas that are currently
under investigation and to explore new and promising areas.
In addition to the funds already mentioned there will be another
$1.5M to do research directed by the Army Surgeon General's office. The
exact disposition of these funds have not been programmed.
