Proposed Downgrading of Classified Documents for Cognitive Sciences Laboratory (Index)
This two-page document is an UNCLASSIFIED index compiled under the subject 'Proposed Downgrading of Classified Documents for Cognitive Sciences Laboratory, Volume 1 & 2.' Each entry originates from SRI (SRI International) and carries a SAICMP91 document control number, indicating a 1991-era compilation. The listed titles concern the U.S. government's remote viewing / psychic functioning research program (later publicly known as STAR GATE), including 'Targeting Requirements Task,' 'Special Orientation Techniques,' 'RV Reliability, Enhancement, and Evaluation,' a 'Feasibility Study on the Use of RV Detection Techniques to Determine Location of Targets,' 'Countermeasures: A Survey and Evaluation,' 'Audiolinguistic Correlations with the Quality of Remote Viewing Sessions,' a 'Review of the Research Conducted at SRI International (1973-1988),' 'Screening and Selection of Personnel: The Personality Assessment System (PAS),' 'The Effects of Hypnosis on Remote Viewing Quality,' 'Photon Production (Chinese Replication),' and 'Remote Viewing Evaluation Techniques.' The file was approved for release by the CIA on 2003/09/16. It documents administrative processing of classified parapsychology research rather than making experimental claims itself.
