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: ABSTRACT:
Recent evidence suggests that the complex neurocognitive processes underlying stable self-awareness and embodiment are not error-proof and can breakdown, leading to striking distortions in body-image and body-based hallucinations. One such hallucination is the Out-of-Body Experience (OBE). The current dominant view is that perspective-taking processes in the temporo-parietal junction regions may sub-serve the shift in perspective underlying the experiential content of the OBE. In this presentation, Dr Braithwaite will review the prior neurological evidence for these assertions and question some of the assumptions surrounding the behavioural tasks employed to investigate these claims. In addition, he will present the latest and most recent findings from his own laboratory showing that (i) previous tasks employed to assess spatial aspects of the OBE are unlikely to be perspective-taking tasks; (ii) non-clinical OBEers display elevated scores on measures of temporal-lobe dysfunction; (iii) OBEers do show specific biases in body-transformation processing – when methodological limitations are addressed; (iv) OBEers display an advantage for elevated perspective-taking tasks relative to controls; and (v) he will present evidence from a new task which has revealed increased levels of cortical hyperexcitabililiy in the OBE population.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
An out-of-body experience (OBE) can be defined as “an experience in which a person perceives the world from a location outside their physical body”. Previously, research has indicated that these experiences reflect a temporary breakdown in typically stable egocentric body-based processing, embodiment, and multi-sensory integration (Blanke et al., 2005) and can be associated with increased degrees of cortical hyperexcitability and temporal lobe dysfunction (Braithwaite et al., 2011; in press / 2012). Kindred hallucinations of self-reduplication, like “sensed-presence experiences” (SPE), are also thought to reflect a breakdown in self-processing, but in the absence of any compromise to the perceiving self and embodiment. We present preliminary findings from the first investigation of Electrodermal activity from hallucinating OBEers and those who report SPEs (and controls) during the induction of a rubber-hand illusion – a task which provides a useful and reliable measure of embodiment and multi-sensory integration. Preliminary evidence suggests a previously unreported psychophysiological component of the Electrodermal response underlying the induction of the rubber-hand illusion. Specifically, we show that (i) significant DC shifts emerge in the electrodermal activity that precedes the rubber-arm illusion; and (ii) this component is strongest for the OBE groups and those who report stronger and more convincing illusions.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
An out-of-body experience or OBE is one in which the “self” or center of awareness seems to the experient to occupy temporarily a position that is spatially remote from his or her body. The experience seems are very widespread in the general population. Some studies show a close relation between the incidente of OBEs and their psychological correlates, especially personality variables, absorption, and dissociative experiences. Six specific hypotheses are tested: Students who report out-of-body experiences have a higher capacity for (1) absorption, (2) dissociation, (3) fantasy proneness, (3) kinetic and visual imagery, (4) visual and tactile hallucination, and (5) cognitive-perceptual, disorganized and interpersonal schizotypy than non-experients. A total of 648 undergraduate students population included 76% females and 24% males, who completed a number of scales. Data for experients of OBE were compared with data for those who did not (experients N= 132 vs. non experients N= 516). The results showed a higher level of cognitive-perceptual, schizotypy, absorption, dissociation, fantasy and hallucination proneness, and visual imagery in OBErs than in non-OBErs which confirm previous studies. The statistical test found that the absorption and cognitive-perceptual schizotypy were the best discriminant for visual [F (2/498)= 81.08; p< .001] and tactile hallucination [F (2/498)= 88.44; p< .001], which underlie the differ-entiation of the OBErs and non-OBErs. The term hallucination has pejorative overtones in spite of the widespread occurrence of anomalous perceptual experiences in the normal population. Some subjects report beneficial effects from OBEs in an adaptive way.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Objectives: Illusory own-body perception (IOBPs) such as out of body experiences (OBEs) and
distortion of body parts have attracted most interest when reported by patients suffering cardiac
arrest and near death experiences, but they have also been reported to occur spontaneously in
patients with epilepsy or migraine, during dreams and have been induced by electrical stimulation
of the right temporoparietal junction (TPJ). However, the neurophysiological mechanisms involved
in such illusory body perceptions remain elusive. Until now there have been worldwide only three
patients, in which direct electrical stimulation of the cortex induced OBEs (for a review s. Ridder et
al. 2007, N Engl J Med). The aim of this study was therefore to investigate in a larger sample under
which conditions transcranial cortex stimulation can induce IOBPs.
Methods: In several experiments MRI-neuronavigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and
transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) were applied over specific brain regions in awake and
in sleeping subjects. Continuous EEG recording was used to verify different sleep stages and to
investigate neural correlates of IOBPs.
Results: Most remarkably, we found that only inhibition of the TPJ induced IOBPs in awake
subjects. Neither high-frequency TMS of the TPJ nor low-frequency TMS of a control site induced
such effects. Thus, our effects were area and frequency specific. Although none of our subjects
reported OBEs, low-frequency TMS of the TPJ could induce illusory own body perceptions such as
twitching sensations and illusory movements of body parts. Spectral EEG analyses revealed that
IOBPs could only be induced, if the deactivation of the TPJ was associated with the deactivation of
the frontopolar cortex.
Conclusions: Our data imply that the impairment of a temporoparietal and a frontal network is
necessary for IOBPs. In a further study we investigated the effects of tDCS during sleep on ownbody
perception in dream reports. Compared with sham stimulation, a significant decrease in the
subjective estimate of the amount of movements in the dream before awakening from REM sleep
was found only after inhibitory tDCS.
Discussion: These studies reveal novel approaches for probing the neurobiology of IOBPs in the
awake and the sleeping mind and might provide new insights in understanding the
pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders associated with abnormal own-body perceptions.

Fractionating the unitary notion of dissociation: disembodied but not embodied dissociative experiences are associated with exocentric perspective-taking
Publication year: 2013

http://www.frontiersin.org/journal/10.3389/fnhum.2013.00719/abstract
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
It has been argued that hallucinations which appear to involve shifts in egocentric perspective (e.g., the out-of-body experience, OBE) reflect specific biases in exocentric perspective-taking processes. Via a newly devised perspective-taking task, we examined whether such biases in perspective-taking were present in relation to specific dissociative anomalous body experiences (ABE) – namely the OBE. Participants also completed the Cambridge Depersonalization Scale (CDS; Sierra and Berrios, 2000) which provided measures of additional embodied ABE (unreality of self) and measures of derealization (unreality of surroundings). There were no reliable differences in the level of ABE, emotional numbing, and anomalies in sensory recall reported between the OBE and control group as measured by the corresponding CDS subscales. In contrast, the OBE group did provide significantly elevated measures of derealization (“alienation from surroundings” CDS subscale) relative to the control group. At the same time we also found that the OBE group was significantly more efficient at completing all aspects of the perspective-taking task relative to controls. Collectively, the current findings support fractionating the typically unitary notion of dissociation by proposing a distinction between embodied dissociative experiences and disembodied dissociative experiences – with only the latter being associated with exocentric perspective-taking mechanisms. Our findings – obtained with an ecologically valid task and a homogeneous OBE group – also call for a re-evaluation of the relationship between OBEs and perspective-taking in terms of facilitated disembodied experiences.

The dark side of the mind: Inducing anomalous bodily experiences in those predisposed to out-of-body experiences
Publication year: 2014

http://abstracts.bps.org.uk/index.cfm?&ResultsType=Abstracts&ResultSet_ID=10971&FormDisplayMode=view&frmShowSelected=true&localAction=details
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVES
The disintegration of typically stable multi-sensory integrative processes is known to underlie disorders in self-consciousness. The present study examined whether individuals predisposed to out-of-body experiences (OBEs) would be more/less susceptible to inductions of the rubber-hand illusion, thus revealing important biases in representations sub-serving a coherent sense of ‘self’.
DESIGN:
A within-subjects design was used. Participants completed questionnaire measures indexing their predisposition to specific anomalous perceptions (and the existence of OBEs) and then took part in a rubber-hand illusion experiment.
METHODS:
70 university undergraduates took part in a rubber-hand illusion experiment involving the synchronous and asynchronous brushing of their real and fake rubber hands. Phenomenological (exit questionnaires) and objective psychophysiological measures (skin conductance responses (SCRs) and body-temperature) of the illusion were taken. In contrast to previous studies, SCR data were standardised via Z-score transformations to facilitate an individual-differences analysis.
RESULTS:
Successful illusions were induced for all groups. For control groups, the illusion and threat responses (SCRs) were stronger for the synchronous condition relative to the asynchronous condition. However, the OBE group displayed the mirror opposite pattern for psychophysiological responses.
CONCLUSIONS:
The rubber-hand illusion revealed new and important differences in multi-sensory integration between those who were predisposed to out-of-body experiences and control participants. It is suggested that this might reflect a ‘disconnection’ between lower and higher cortical representations of the body-image which in turn generates a lag between the temporal integration of multi-sensory information for those prone to OBEs – reducing the impact of synchronous-brushing inductions of the illusion.

Neuroscience and anomalous experience: Cortical hyperexcitability and the out-of-body experience
Publication year: 2014
URL:
http://abstracts.bps.org.uk/index.cfm?&ResultsType=Abstracts&ResultSet_ID=10970&FormDisplayMode=view&frmShowSelected=true&localAction=details
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
OBJECTIVES:
Striped patterns (i.e. gratings) with a spatial frequency of three cycles-per-degree of visual angle are known to produce visual discomfort, induce phantom visual distortions and somatic sensations in susceptible observers. These phenomena have been termed ‘pattern-glare’ and are thought to reflect increased degrees of cortical hyperexcitability and be associated with visual hallucinations/aura. The present objective was to examine these signs of cortical hyperexcitability in non-clinical individuals predisposed to out-of-body experiences (OBEs).
DESIGN:
A within-subjects design was used. Participants completed questionnaire measures indexing their predisposition to specific anomalous perceptions (and the existence of OBEs) and then took part a pattern-glare task for a measure of cortical hyperexcitability.
METHODS:
A random sample of 50 non-clinical university undergraduates was recruited. A computer-based pattern-glare experiment, where participants viewed gratings of different spatial frequencies, was devised to examine degrees of cortical hyperexcitability in non-clinical hallucinators and control participants. Data were analysed via standard parametric and non-parametric procedures.
RESULTS:
Increased signs of cortical hyperexcitability (signified by increased ratings of visual irritability and increased numbers of phantom visual/somatic distortions from viewing certain striped gratings) significantly correlated with the incidence of OBEs and scores from independent questionnaire measures of anomalous perceptions.
CONCLUSIONS:
Pattern-glare tasks are sensitive to underlying cortical factors implicated in some somatic distortions and body-based hallucinations like the OBE. As a consequence, these tasks show considerable promise in their objective utility to identify neurocognitive factors underlying positive hallucinatory symptomology across a range of hallucinatory-prone non-clinical, neurological and clinical groups (e.g. Depersonalisation, Schizophrenia/Schizotypy, Dissociative disorders, Psychoses).

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.

Out-of-body experiences associated with seizure

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Alterations of consciousness are critical factors in the diagnosis of epileptic seizures. With these alterations in consciousness, some persons report sensations of separating from the physical body, experiences that may in rare cases resemble spontaneous out-of-body experiences. This study was designed to identify and characterize these out-of-body-like subjective experiences associated with seizure activity. Fifty-five percent of the patients in this study recalled some subjective experience in association with their seizures. Among our sample of 100 patients, 7 reported out-of-body experiences associated with their seizures. We found no differentiating traits that were associated with patients' reports of out-of-body experiences, in terms of either demographics; medical history, including age of onset and duration of seizure disorder, and seizure frequency; seizure characteristics, including localization, lateralization, etiology, and type of seizure, and epilepsy syndrome; or ability to recall any subjective experiences associated with their seizures. Reporting out-of-body experiences in association with seizures did not affect epilepsy-related quality of life. It should be noted that even in those patients who report out-of-body experiences, such sensations are extremely rare events that do not occur routinely with their seizures. Most patients who reported out-of-body experiences described one or two experiences that occurred an indeterminate number of years ago, which precludes the possibility of associating the experience with the particular characteristics of that one seizure or with medications taken or other conditions at the time.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Background: A key characteristic of OBE research is the ability to accurately state whether or not a reported experience is an OBE. Previous OBE research has typically used a single item for discerning OBErs from non-OBErs. The limitations to this method are that participants can falsely identify or reject themselves as OBErs owing to the few number of features contained in the wording of the item. Instead, a scale of items tapping into the varied phenomenology of the OBE would be a more robust and valid screening tool for assessing OBE occurrence. The aim of this study was to develop such a multi-item screening tool. Method: This study was conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1: A Directed Content Analysis of published OBE cases and interviews with OBErs was conducted. The findings were used to develop a questionnaire. Phase 2: An OBE screening questionnaire was designed, piloted and tested. Results: An Exploratory Factor Analysis was conducted on the pilot questionnaire data. A five-factor model emerged that provided the best statistical and theoretical solution. The five-factor model was then tested and the data subjected to a Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Results showed that the hypothesised model demonstrated a poor overall fit across five of the six goodness-of-fit indicators, except for the Chi Square ratio which indicated an acceptable fit. As a result, the hypothesised model was rejected. Conclusion: A preliminary version of a multi-item screening scale has been developed to more accurately assess the occurrence of an OBE than using a single item. It is recommended that the final scale should be further validated in a variety of ways with other different samples of OBErs in future longer-term studies.
