SUBJECT: THE EVIDENCE FOR ALIEN ABDUCTIONS FILE: UFO3042
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
I have been reading a book called _The Evidence For ALien ABductions_
|
|
by John Rimmer C. 1984...
|
|
|
|
I would like to summarize and\or quote an experiment and the results.
|
|
|
|
The experiment was conducted by Alvin Lawson and William McCall.
|
|
|
|
The concept was to be able to distinguish the abduction info given
|
|
during hypnotic regression between a real abduction and a hoax(the
|
|
reason for the hoax for this particular experiment was irrelevent). They
|
|
wanted a database of info that could distinguish real data from
|
|
imaginary data.
|
|
|
|
"They began by locating a number of people who would be willing to
|
|
participate in their experiments, but who knew little or nothing about
|
|
UFOs - possibly a rather difficult task in Southern California where
|
|
they operated...These...subjects were then 'led into' a UFO abduction
|
|
scenario by means of a carefully designed series of leading questions,
|
|
which suggested the bare outlines of the abduction but left the subject
|
|
free to fill in the details. These details would come...from the
|
|
witnesses' own imaginations. They would then be able to compare the
|
|
imaginary abductions with th real events, and by a comparison of the
|
|
differences between the two, would be able to gain valuable clues to use
|
|
when trying to sort out any hoaxes in the cases that came to them as UFO
|
|
researchers."
|
|
|
|
One interjection here- how did they know that there supposed known- the
|
|
so-called 'real' abductions were in fact, real abductions? Not saying
|
|
the supposed real were not real, but no comment in the text
|
|
mentioned this point. I took the assumption that their real database
|
|
were witnesses who were not led into the abduction or prior cases,
|
|
possibly by other researchers.
|
|
|
|
"...But the experiments went spectacularly wrong...what happened was
|
|
that the 'imaginary' stories were quite indistinguishable from the
|
|
'real' experiences, even down to tiny details..."
|
|
|
|
The text then goes further into the stereotyped abductee, some of the
|
|
stories the witnesses gave, etc...until the text leads into the
|
|
researchers conclusion, "Birth Trauma Hypothesis."
|
|
|
|
The point here is it is very difficult to distinguish between an actual
|
|
abduction(if in fact they do occur) and the imagination.
