Research Program / Claims / psychometry-5

Information obtained through psychometry presents as fragmented elements such as impressions, words, dates, numbers, colors, shapes, rather than a complete coherent picture.

感应力获取的信息呈现为印象、词语、日期、数字、颜色、形状等碎片化元素,而非完整连贯的图景。

This program treats the Seth Material as a source of hypotheses, not as doctrine to be validated. Lead dossiers are AI-compiled from the corpus with a book-and-session citation after every statement; literature reviews are AI web-search summaries whose references were all DOI-verified against Crossref; the agenda draft is an AI synthesis. None of it is Seth's original text, and none of it represents scientific consensus. English fields are machine-translated; the Chinese text is authoritative.

Adjudicating experiment
Approximately 200 participants, including 100 self-reported experienced individuals and 100 matched controls, touch real objects, visually identical replicas, and empty containers; each person completes 24 rounds over about 3 months. Immediate audio recording, blind coding of words, numbers, colors, shapes, scene coherence, and imagery duration; compare with ordinary free association tasks; inter-rater agreement and fragmentation indices are pre-registered. Additionally, the same report is blindly matched against the true owner and three decoy owner profiles to independently test the relationship between experiential form and hidden information accuracy.
Suggested paper title
Fragmentation and Modality of Object-Evoked Imagery: A Pre-registered Phenomenological Study
What it would overturn
Confirming fragmented experiences alone would not overturn any mainstream assumption, because spontaneous imagery and association naturally allow for incoherent content.

Specificity of Seth's formulation
Listing experiential components has descriptive value but does not specify proportions, timing, or unique combinations; it lacks a clear distinction from ordinary imagery, free association, and hypnagogic experiences.
Note
'Supported' applies only to the weak version that people do report such experiences, not to anomalous information sources, nor does it support the exclusive version that 'complete pictures do not appear'; [Beat Meier research profile](https://www.kog.psy.unibe.ch/ueber_uns/personen/bmeier/index_ger.html).
