Abstract

A test was made of the claims of the S that he could wake from sleep at a randomly-selected minute unknown to himself. The E set clock (not running) daily in Johannesburg to show a randomly selected target minute, and the S in Cape Town recorded the minute during the night when he awoke. Highly significant results were obtained which were due to an excess of times of awakening within the minute indicated. Tabulation of the data in other terms, such as waking times near the target minute, showed only chance results.
