Forwald, H
(1962). A PK dice experiment with doubles as targets and non-targets.
Journal of Parapsychology, 26, (pp. 112-122) Abstract 2 dice were thrown for "doubles"
(identical faces on the 2 dice) until a specified number of doubles had been
obtained. In one subseries the E, acting as his own S, concentrated upon
having the doubles appear in as few throws as possible, and in another
subseries, he tried to take as many throws as possible, in getting the same
number of doubles. The results come out in agreement with the S\'s
intention, with P < 10-super(-4). A statistic appropriate for testing
significance when the variable is the number of trials is described and
applied.
