Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002100230001-3 SECRET 3. (U) Basic Research: (C/NE) This research would require assistance from basic research laboratories at universities and contractor facilities. Main focus would be on investigations that define theoretical models and fundamental. physical (and mental) mechanisms that help explain the various types of psychoenergetics effects. Physical and psychological scientists and those from other disciplines (such as medical, biology, neuro-physiology) would be involved in this exploratory work. Some of this effort would complement investigation of the empirically based applied research. (S/NF) This basic research could include, for example, long distance remote viewing experiments to deep submarines or orbital platforms for evaluating possible electromagnetic transmission models. A variety of experiments would be developed for electromagnetic, quantum mechanical, or other physical theories that have been advanced as possible explanatory models for the phenomena. Issues involving brain/mind, consciousness/subconsciousness or cognitive research would be examained for clues that might suggest how PSI information may be received, processed, and presented to consciousness, or how energetic PSI phenomena (PK) are mediated. PK effects, for example, may involve a complex interaction between mental and physical states. Some form of electromagnetic frequency may be generated by the central nervous system that interacts with surrounding material for some types of PK phenomenon. Issues such as these, and many others, would be explored by the basic research effort. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 -/¢f4-RDP96-00789R002100230001-3
