Description

When many people gather and do something intensively, no matter how little they are conscious of the results of their conduct, an anomalous output from a random number generator that is set around such people occurs. It is thus recognized as a statistically significant occurrence. When a worldwide event occurs and many people notice it, random number generators set around worldwide show an anomalous output. It has been a recent tendency to receive such reports. This report is a continuation of our previous report from the last month of 2001 to the beginning of 2002. It is considered here that an accumulated deviation of anomalous output occurred from December 27th, 2002, to January 7th, 2003. The results and experimental data were statistically significant : Z=2.63, p=0.009 (both tails) during the New Year's holiday, while controls of 10 sectioned period area occurred by chance. We could not recognized a significant variation of the Z value within the experiment period. At the event of New Year's holiday data, a cumulative deviation was recognized as being a statistically significant occurrence when the conciousness of the majority people would be concentrated. This is the same conclusion of the last report. It is suggested that a data deviation of the output from random number generator occurs during a New Year's holiday.
