The BIAL Foundation was created in 1994 by Laboratórios BIAL in conjunction with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. BIAL’s Foundation mission is to foster the scientific study of Man from both the physical and spiritual perspectives.
Along the years the BIAL Foundation has developed an important relationship with the scientific community, first in Portugal and after worldwide. Today it is an institution of reference which aims to stimulate new researches that may help people, promote more health and contribute to new milestones to gain access to knowledge.
Among its activities the BIAL Foundation manages the BIAL Award, created in 1984, one of the most important awards in the Health field in Europe. The BIAL Award rewards both the basic and the clinical research distinguishing works of major impact in medical research.
The BIAL Foundation also assigns Scientific Research Scholarships for the study of neurophysiological and mental health in people, arousing the interest of researchers in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
To date the BIAL Foundation has supported 461 projects, more than 1000 researchers, with research groups in twenty-seven countries, resulting, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, out of which 172 published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).

History:
In 1994 the BIAL Foundation launched a programme of science research grants with the aim of encouraging the research into Man’s physical and mental processes, namely in fields still largely unexplored but which warrant further scientific analysis, as Psychophysiology and Parapsychology.
Since its launch, applications to the BIAL grants have been increasing. Up to now 461 projects have been supported, involving more than 1000 researchers from 27 countries.
The approved applications have benefited from grants in amounts comprised between €5,000 and €50, 000. The amount to be granted is fixed by the Scientific board according to the needs of each project.
The supported projects have originated, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, 172 out of which were published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665).
Among the BIAL Foundation fellows is worth highlighting the presence of scientists from prestigious universities from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Russia, Germany, Japan, France, Canada, and many others.

Psychological correlates of aura vision: Psychic experiences, dissociation, absorption, and synaesthesia-like experiences
Publication year: 2009
Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
Five survey studies, three conducted from 1995 to 1997 and two more in 2007 and 2008, are reported in which we hypothesised that individuals who claimed to be "aura viewers" would report a higher frequency of other seemingly psychic, mystical and lucid dream experiences and a higher number of discrete psychic experiences than "non-aura viewers." For Studies 2 through 5, it was also hypothesised that aura viewers would obtain a similar relationship with synaesthesia-like experiences and with measures of dissociation (using the Dissociative Experiences Scale), absorption (using Tellegen's Absorption Scale), and depersonalisation (using the Cambridge Depersonalisation Scale). The studies also differed in terms of the language of administration (either Spanish or English) and study populations (from special interest groups to college students to members of the general public). In all five studies, the main hypotheses were confirmed with the exception of lucid dreams, a significant difference between the groups being found only in Studies 3 and 5. In Studies 2 through 5, the predicted relationship of aura vision to synaesthesia and personality variables was confirmed. All five studies suggest that aura vision experiences relate to an overall pattern of claims of psychic and mystical experiences. The consistency of the results was surprising, given the differences in sample selection, language of administration, and study location.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
Broughton’s model of extrasensory perception proposes that the emotional system may have been co-opted by evolution to work with memory to present anomalous information in a manner that helps humans to make adaptive decisions when sensory information is inadequate. This study attempted to gain experimental support by using the framing effect as an individual differences measure of sensitivity to emotional input that would correlate with psychic experiences and/or ability. Framing effect sensitivity was measured using a financial risk behavioural task and a battery of ‘Asian disease’ style questions. The Australian Sheep-Goat questionnaire assessed psychic beliefs and experiences. Psychic ability was measured using the Intuitive Market Trader (a futures market share trading simulator) and a precognitive Remote Viewing task. Additional personality and cognitive style data were obtained from the IPIP NEO-FFI battery, Emotion Business Decision Making Inventory, and the Rational-Experiential Inventory. Results of the 125 completed participants indicated that both framing-effect tasks functioned as expected but neither measure showed any relationship with psychic experience or ability. As expected, the Experiential factor (only) of the REI was correlated positively and significantly with the psychic beliefs (p=.00002) and experiences (p=.000003) and the Experiential factor was also positively and significantly correlated with performance in the Intuitive Market Trader psychic ability test (p=.007). While REI results provide promising support for emotion-based models of psychic functioning, the principal goal of developing the framing effect as a predictor of psychic experience and ability was not achieved.

Revealing psi secrets: successful experimenters seem to succeed by using their own psi
Publication year: 2014
Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
A review of the literature makes a strong case for successful experimenters using their own psi to produce positive results either directly or in concert with that of their participants. The personal histories of well-known experimenters suggest that in some cases this capacity existed prior to their success as experimenters, and for others it seems to have occurred or reached awareness through experimentation. Examples are given of the successful performance of psi-conducive researchers when they were participants in experiments. Some hitherto unpublished aspects of the Gothenburg ganzfeld studies are presented that support these conclusions. Theoretical backgrounds in terms of current observational theory and current views of consciousness are briefly reviewed. Some ways of “forensically” or otherwise revealing the influence of experimenter psi are also presented. Experimenter psi is seen as having far-reaching implications for both psychology and parapsychology.
