Abstract

2 experiments were carried out to test the presence of precognitive ability in 42 Roman High Avoidance strain rats. Ss were tested individually in a cage having 2 compartments separated by a central barrier over which the S could jump. At the beginning of each trial, one side or the other was randomly chosen to receive an electrical stimulus if the S was on that side. Results show that with the very weak, nonaversive stimulus in Exp I, the Ss sought out the electrified area to a significant extent, while with the slightly stronger, weakly aversive shock in Exp II, no psi effects were noted.
