- Geophysical Variables and Behaviour: XXXIX
- Alterations in Imaginings and Suggestibility
- During Brief Magnetic Field Exposures
-
- by Christine F. DeSano and M. A. Persinger
- at Laurentian University
-
- originally in Perceptual Motor Skills, 1987
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Male and female subjects were exposed to alternating magnetic fields
- of 1 and 4 Hertz which were applied across their mid-superior
- Temporal lobes.
-
- In addition, a green light was pulsed in phase with the magnetic
- field while the participant was instructed to imagine an encounter
- with an alien.
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Rostral (at nose level) to the upper half of the ear, retractable
- arms were placed, each containing a 25 CM (1 CM diameter) soft iron
- nail wrapped (1050 turns) with insulated wire (20 gauge).
-
- A function generator was used to drive the solenoids with sine wave
- current at either 1 HZ or 4 HZ.
-
- Magnetic field intensity was about 15 GAUSS at the skull surface.
-
- Field strength measured at the temporal cortex was 2 GAUSS.
-
- Maximum field strength as measured at the level of the frontal lobes
- was 200 MGAUSS (a 10 factor decrease).
-
- At the level of the hippocampus, field strength was 500 MGAUSS.
-
- All subjects generated elaborate imaginings when exposed to a green
- light flashing in sync with the driven solenoids.
-

-
- 4 HZ field imaginings included a sensation of rising or floating.
-
- The end result of the experiment was that hypnotic susceptibility
- may be increased following magnetic-field exposure but that the most
- effective frequency is different for each sex.
-
- The quantity of imagery generated (particular the floating
- sensations) INCREASED if the person observed a light flashing in
- sync with a 4 HZ applied magnetic field.
-
- Most interesting of all was that the magnetic field strengths were
- MUCH LESS than those expected to occur in NATURAL SETTINGS.

- Vangard Notes..
-
- OMNI writer Dennis Stacy did an article on Persinger's
- research in December of 1988 (I think). It relates the UFO
- encounter phenomenon and how it could quite possibly be
- INDUCED by alternating magnetic fields of relatively low
- intensity.
-
- As I remember the article, Persinger was using a football
- helmet with multiple solenoids placed in a grid and
- supported over the skull.
-
- When the helmet was driven by a computer as a peripheral
- device (a printer), various patterns (characters) could be
- projected onto the brain of the subject to induce various
- effects.
-
- If any of our KeelyNet associates come across this article, we
- would appreciate a copy or uploading of the text that we might
- annotate and included it in a text file.
