The balancing effect in brain-machine interaction

Abstract

The meta analysis of Intangible Brain Machine Interaction (IMMI) data with random number generators is re-evaluated through the application of rigorous and recognized mathematical tools. The current analysis shows that the statistical average of the true RNG-IMMI data is not shifted from chance by direct mental intervention, thus refuting the IMMI hypothesis. A facet of this general statistical behavior of true RNG-IMMI data is the statistical balancing of scores observed in IMMI tests where binary testing conditions are adopted. The actual dynamics that had been supporting the elusive IMMI effect are shown to be related to the psychology of experimenters. The implications of the refutation of the IMMI hypothesis especially on associated phenomena are also discussed.
