Abstract

Examined the relationship between ESP test results and the actual unconscious mental state. Ss were 64 college students participating in a counseling program that ran from 1989 to 1994. Ss performed a precognitive timing task as a means of introspective self-analysis to help solve mental stresses and conflicts. It was expected that the tendency to correctly hit randomly generated numbers would indicate success in decreasing unconscious stresses, while a missing tendency would indicate a failure to do so. The variability of the run scores was significantly higher than chance (p<.004), which shows that there were consistent hitting and missing tendencies during the periods of the introspective self-analysis.
