| | Abstract: Stefan Michalak Was Extremely Ill After an Encounter with a UFO in Canada in 1967 the Case Was Investigated Intensely and He Was Subjected to Numerous Medical Tests the Results of the Tests Were Inconclusive, Physicians Could Find No Explanation for Michalak'S Symptoms If It Was a Hoax, It Is One of the Most Contrived on Record, Involving Radiation, Ground Traces, Medical Examinations and Interrogation by Government Officials at Many Levels the Case Is Still a Puzzle to Researchers |

| Susan Marie POWERS | Thematic Content Analyses of the Reports of UFO Abductees and Close Encounter Witnesses: Indications of Repressed Sexual Abuse | 35-54 |
| | Abstract: Twenty Alleged Extraterrestrial Abductees Participated in a Study Exploring the Presence of Dissociative and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms Two Comparison Groups of 20 Sightees and 20 Sexually Abused Persons Provided Comparative Data Inter Views and Questionnaires Elicited Detailed Accounts From the Abductee Group, and Thematic Content Analysis Rendered Three Predominant Themes of 1) Being Chosen, 2) Missing Time, and 3) Bodily Intrusions Results Showed That 45% of the Abductee Population Manifested Ptsd Symptoms and 70% of the Abductees Manifested Dissociative Symptomatology the Three Themes in the Thematic Analysis Suggest That Sexual Abuse May Be at the Root of Some of the Abduction Stories |

| Michel BOUNIAS | Further Quantification of Distance-Related Effects in the Trans-En-Provence Case | 109-121 |
| | Abstract: In a Previous Report Known as "the Trans-En-Provence Case," a Number of Biochemical Changes Were Detected in Plants Following the Landing of an Unidentified Ob Ject Some Relationships Were Discerned When the Concentrations of Cellular Compounds Were Plotted Against the Distances From the Epicenter of the Phenomenon, but This Point Deserved Further Examination This Paper Aims to Verify and Clarify the Preliminary Results Within the Limits of the Possible Revised Algebraic Treatments of the Data Allowed a Num Ber of Relationships to Appear as Behaving with the Reciprocal of the Square of the Distance This Was the Case for Some Photosynthetic Pigments, for Glucose and for Two Ammo Acids Uncertainty Remains Because of the Natural Biological Variability and the Lack of a Con Trolled Experimental Design (a Limitation Imposed by the Constraints of Ecological Condi Tions at the Site) However, These Results Might Strengthen the Hypothesis of the Involve Ment of Electromagnetic and/or Gravitational Forces in the Observed Events, Provided Linear Relations Could Be Ascertained Between the Corresponding Metabolic Functions and These Forces in Similar Conditions Suggestions Are Made for Experimental Designs That Could Allow Quantitative Results to Be Obtained From Other Trace Cases |
