Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
Findings in parapsychology suggest an effect of distant intentionality. Two laboratory set-ups explored this topic by measuring the effect of a distant intention on psychophysiological variables. The DMILS (direct mental interaction in living systems) experiments investigate the effect of various intentions on the electrodermal activity (EDA) of a remote subject. The "Remote Staring" experiments examine whether gazing by an observer (starer) covaries with the electrodermal activity of the person being observed (staree).
In two meta-analyses (Schmidt, Schneider, Utts & Walach, 2004) it became obvious that the remote staring studies had a lower overall quality than the DMILS studies. While there are some high quality DMILS studies (score over 90%) the highest quality in Remote Staring studies is 71%.
Thus there is a lack in studies with good methodology to assess the remote staring paradigm. We conducted a remote staring study that intended to overcome methodological shortcomings of earlier studies.
Fifty participants were invited to take part as starees. After completing questionnaires on mindfulness, mood, personality and paranormal belief they rested in a comfortable position in front of a video camera while their EDA was continuously monitored. The experimenter also acted as the starer and either observed or did not observe the participant through a closed circuit television system according to a random schedule. EDA during stare and non-stare epochs was compared for significant differences.
In addition to this basic (replication) set-up two new hypotheses were tested. The participant had the possibility to press a button whenever s/he feels stared at. This added a conscious response variable without engaging into the disadvantages of the standard conscious guessing paradigm (guessing strategies, response bias etc). Furthermore the distraction of the starer's intention during non-stare epochs was varied. In one condition s/he was mentally occupied by a cognitive task, in the other s/he was just told not to stare (standard condition). We hypothesized that the distraction from the target in the standard condition was too weak to avoid an unwanted intentional effect in the staree.
Overall we did not find any staring effect at all, not in the EDA data and not in the 'conscious' open response situation. The difference between the conditions were the sender was distracted or not distracted was not significant (p=.07) but for the condition where the starers were distracted (N=20) we found a medium effect size for a staring effect according.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Findings in parapsychology suggest an effect of distant intentionality related to remote staring. Previously, either the covariation of a distant gaze with the electrodermal activity (EDA) of the person being observed (staree) or with the person’s conscious guesses are measured. We combined these two strands of research.
Thereby we allowed for the starees at any time to indicate whether they felt being stared at or not. We distracted the starers by a demanding mental task in half of the sessions or we instructed them to keep their minds busy with anything but the staree. Overall 50 sessions were conducted. The experiment failed to demonstrate a clear cut effect. The difference between the staring and non-staring conditions was not significant. For the comparison of distraction and standard procedures we found no significant differences for
EDA or conscious report. However in a post hoc analysis one of the conscious report variables approached significance for the interaction between staring and distraction in the predicted direction. The effect size of the staring effect in this condition was d = 0.57. We conclude that the starer’s mental strategy during the non-staring periods may be important.

Of two minds: Skeptic-proponent collaboration within parapsychology

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The first author, a proponent of evidence for psychic ability, and the second, a sceptic, have been conducting a systematic programme of collaborative sceptic-proponent research in parapsychology. This has involved carrying out joint experiments in which each investigator individually attempted to mentally influence the electrodermal activity of participants at a distant location. The first two collaborations obtained evidence of ‘experimenter effects’, that is, experiments conducted by the proponent obtained significant results but those conducted by the sceptic did not. This paper describes a new collaborative study that attempted to replicate our previous findings and explore potential explanations for past results. The new study failed to replicate our previous findings. The paper investigates whether the results obtained in our initial studies may have been caused by a genuine psychic effect, and this third experiment failed to replicate this finding because some aspect of the study disrupted the production of that effect, or whether the results from our first two studies represented chance findings or undetected subtle artifacts, and the results obtained in the present study accurately reflect the absence of a remote detection of staring effect. The implications of this work are discussed, along with the benefits of conducting collaborative work for resolving disagreements in other controversial areas of psychology.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
We conducted a remote staring study that was intended to overcome some of the methodological shortcomings of earlier and current studies. We combined the classical setting EDA as dependant variable (Braud et al, 1993) with the paradigm that takes the starees´ conscious guesses as the main outcome. Based on findings in the field of social psychology (e.g. Wegner et al, 1987, 1994) we supposed that the classical instruction for the starer “to think not about the staree” in the non-staring condition would be rather counterproductive by making the image of this person tend to return to mind. Moreover we hypothesized that a different operationalization of the control condition a variance between staring and non-staring situation could produce clearer effects in the outcome variable. Therefore we tried to distract the starers completely from the starees during the non-stare conditions by a demanding cognitive task in half of the sessions or we left them with just a blank screen and the classical instruction to “think about something else” in the other half – in order to make a comparison.
Fifty participants were invited to take part as starees. After completing questionnaires on mindfulness, mood,
personality and paranormal belief they rested in a comfortable position in front of a video camera while their EDA was continuously monitored. According to a random schedule they were “stared at” through a closed circuit television system. Conscious guesses were not assessed in the classical forced-choice manner (“Have you been stared at? Yes / No?”) but were replaced by an “open-response” one that allowed them to guess not just when but also how long they felt being stared at. To avoid any cognitive strategies or response bias tendencies starees were blind against the number of staring / non staring periods (10 / 10) and also against the duration of these. Our results were as follows: Overall we did not find any staring effect at all, not in the EDA data and not in the conscious guesses data. The difference between the two conditions (standard vs. distraction) was not significant (p = .07) whereas a medium effect size staring effect according to our hypothesis of d = .43 (p = .085) for the difference between staring and non staring epochs could be found for the “distracting condition”.Because of the lack of any staring effect we could not demonstrate the advantages of our “distraction paradigm”. The results pointed into this direction but they can be of course mere chance findings. We nevertheless recommend that any future investigations into the “sense of being stared at” phenomenon take similar precautions when operationalizing their experimental conditions.

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.
The BIAL grants are promoted biannually.
