Abstract:
Studies involving quantum-based random event generators, REGs (or RNGs), demonstrate that human subjects can influence quantum events through mental intention. However, in a long history of effort over hundreds of studies, effect sizes have remained only slightly above background noise.
As proposed here, the lack of significant progress may be due to the prevailing study methodology. REG studies generally involve many subjects recruited on a shortterm basis, with all data aggregated into a single result. In contrast, the work presented here involves a single-subject design, with the subject also functioning as experimenter, undergoing a training process and using the heuristics of the experience to introspectively examine the nature of the effect. Under this framework, it becomes apparent that the timescale on which mind–matter effects occur is much shorter
and more complex than previously understood, and the influence is more extensive than has been reported. These findings argue for a significant shift in REG study efforts from the domain of anomalies research (or parapsychology) to that of targeted consciousness research, with implications for neuroscience, physics, and our basic understanding of nature.
