POSSIBLE PARAPSYCHOLOGICAL RELEVANCE OF HIROSHI MOTOYAMNS AMI MACHINE: A GESP Experiment with Physiological Measurements

Abstract

In a sample of 30 adult Japanese subjects, a "general extrasensory perception" (GESP) test was conducted using standard ESP cards. The subjects were divided into three categories, average, positive, and negative, according to the number of hits in their GESP runs. We hypothesized

(1) to propose that either average or positive runs would show more Ki energy as measured by the AMI instrument, particularly in the gastric, spleen-pancreas, and triple heater meridian. When the data were analyzed using the Student t-test, none were found to have any statistical significance.

Hypothesis (2) proposed that all major meridians would show a positive correlation with GESP functioning. This hypothesis was only partially supported as only gastric and spleen-pancreas meridians showed significant values.
