(S/CL-3/NOFORN) I thought that I would provide you with a status report with
regard to the screening/selection task.
(1) Our major consultant, Dr. David Saunders, now has the WAIS
results for 6 calibrated remote viewers who were part of our
IEEE published data base.
(2) We also have collected the WAIS results for 13 other remote
viewers who are currently participating in on-going remote
viewing programs. We will be obtaining RV calibrations for
these people throughout the year.
(3) We are obtaining the results from 1300 responses obtained
during a nation-wide RV/psychological test that appeared
in Omni magazine. The psychological questions were developed
by Saunders for Mr. Stephan Schwartz, the program director.
(4) We have arranged for a three-fold laboratory cooperative
effort (SRI, Princeton, Mobius) to analyze the RV results
in a statistically meaningful way and to correlate the 1300
responses with the results of Saunders' psychological analysis.
Since Saunders developed the "self report" questions on the
basis of his general knowledge of the PAS, we are fortunate
to have such a large database with which to work.
(5) Under another program, we are modifying Dean Robert Jahn's
RV judging procedure to fit more closely our form of remote
viewing. The statistical output of this procedure, which
is available to us, allows quantitative results to be
calculated for each RV response. This is necessary to allow
meaningful correlations with the results of the psychological
analysis.

(6) We have obtained the services of a psychologist, Dr. Nevin
Lantz, who will provide us with a detailed analysis of Neuro
Linguistic Programming with regard to its validity as a
psychological process and its potential as an RV screening
procedure. NLP has received a lot of public attention lately,
and Dr. Lantz will help us determine which claims, if valid,
might be applicable to our problem.
(U) Please feel free to contact me if you have questions on what we have
done to date, or if you have suggestions for the direction of the investigation.
