Abstract

A preliminary independent replication was conducted using a magnetic field stimulation technique claimed to evoke “excess correlations” in the dynamic behavior of any two objects exposed to the same fields. The objects in this experiment were beakers of water separated by distances of one, six, or ten meters. Acetic acid was added to water in a “local” beaker while pH was simultaneously measured in a “remote” beaker in which nothing was added. Control tests involved either not adding acid to the local beaker in some runs, or by using a third beaker that was not exposed to the magnetic field. The prediction was that the remote beaker’s pH would shift toward alkaline during a specific phase of the magnetic field stimulation, as compared to the same measure in control conditions. Based on a linear mixed-effects analysis and a bias-corrected and accelerated nonparametric bootstrap procedure applied to 50 experimental and control runs a statistically significant (p < 0.0005) but small magnitude pH shift (+0.004) toward alkalinity was observed in the remote beaker during the predicted stimulation phase, supporting previously published claims.
