BIAL Foundation Archive
Start date: 1994
History:
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).
Since 1996 the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers well renowned neurosciences speakers and the BIAL Foundation Fellows which are spread around the world.
Classified as an institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the Portuguese President, the Portuguese Universities Rectors' Council and the Portuguese Medical Association.

Title: BIAL Grants
Start date: 1994
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.
The BIAL grants are promoted biannually.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
This study with the I Ching is the fourth in a series (N = 200). There are 64 readings corresponding to so-called “hexagrams”, and the P is asked to select 16 hexagram descriptor-pairs that match the statement “Lately, or right now, I feel . . .” The P then throws three coins six times to produce an outcome hexagram. If this outcome matches one of the 16 pre-selections, then the P makes a hit. A previous finding was replicated although it only approached significance. Exploratory analyses revealed no reliably significant correlations with the three psychopractic measures (i.e., 1st-hexagram hitting, 2nd-hexagram hitting, and changing lines), but there were a number of additional psychological correlates of transliminality.
Ps from the above study (n = 8) took part in an experiment using the ProComp+ neuro-feedback apparatus. Feedback on computer was given during normal and paranormal tasks switched at irregular intervals. During normal modes, Ps were required to keep EEG alpha rhythm above threshold, and/or integrated EMG amplitude below threshold, in order to elicit positive feedback. During paranormal modes, a single frame from the animation was presented, which did not change regardless of alpha and/or EMG amplitudes. It was hypothesized that (i) video anomalies occur during paranormal modes, and (ii) EEG alpha amplitude is higher, and/or integrated EMG amplitude is lower during paranormal modes. Previous meditation and biofeedback experience had no effect on EEG alpha amplitude or EMG. Some participants showed evidence of waveform training. Transliminality correlated with alpha and EMG in the hypothesized directions, but only approached significance in the Transliminality/alpha correlation.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Using the ProComp+ neuro-feedback apparatus, intermittent feedback was given to eight participants as they performed an alternating bimodal (i.e., normal and paranormal) task, switched at irregular intervals. During normal modes, participants were required to keep EEG alpha rhythm above threshold, and/or EMG amplitude below threshold, in order to elicit positive feedback of a 'Spinning Man' animation. The man spun only when one or both threshold contingencies were met. During paranormal modes, regardless of alpha and/or EMG amplitudes, the participants were required to keep the man spinning, but they were blind to the fact that their attempts could only elicit micro-PK changes (i.e., 'anomalous perturbations') on a single frame taken from the Spinning Man animation sequence. If psi was elicited during this mode, anomalies were expected as a result of participants' focussed attention. It was hypothesised that (i) video anomalies might occur during the paranormal modes, and (ii) EEG alpha amplitude might be higher, and/or integrated EMG amplitude might be lower, during paranormal modes. Stills of the video frame caught during paranormal modes were later analysed. No evidence was found for (i) or (ii). Three un-hypothesised 'anomalous' effects occurred during the running of the experiment but, on parsimonious grounds, these were attributed to software flaws. It is argued that lack of biofeedback during paranormal modes may have been psi-inhibitive. Previous meditation and biofeedback experience had no effect on EEG alpha amplitude or EMG. Some participants showed evidence of waveform training. Transliminality correlated with alpha and EMG in the directions hypothesised, but only approached significance in the Transliminality/alpha correlation.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
This present study on the Chinese book of divination, the I Ching, is the fourth in a series of six studies using a particular standardized testing approach. Given that there are 64 readings in the book (corresponding to so-called ‘hexagrams’), the participant is asked to select 16 hexagram descriptor-pairs that match the statement “Lately, or right now, I feel . . .” The participant then throws three coins six times to produce an outcome hexagram which, if it matches one of the 16 pre-selections, is deemed a ‘hit’. Previous I Ching studies (Storm, 2001b; Storm & Thalbourne, 1998-1999; 2001a,b) report significant hexagram hit-rates, but the samples were comprised mainly of university students and no previous tests had focussed on the general public. In this replication study (N = 200), to explore the generality of the findings, and for comparative purposes, 100 members of the general public and 100 students were tested. Both authors tested half of each sub-sample to see if there was an experimenter effect. To determine predictor variables, the 16PF (Russell & Karol, 1994), the Revised Transliminality Scale, two sheep-goat questions, two ‘states-of-mind’ questions, a pro attitude questionnaire, and Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale were administered. The two sheep-goat questions correlated significantly with number of changing lines. Pro Attitude correlated significantly with second-hexagram hitting. Hexagram hit-rates were not significant. No experimenter effects were found. Some significant psychological correlates of transliminality were replicated. The cumulative record across four I Ching studies shows hexagram hitting to be a marginally significant effect.
