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.
