During psychological-time experiments, Ro experienced an enlargement of the hand and forearm, saw the image of an elderly woman with white hair, heard drum sounds and music, and flashed fragments of people and trees.

罗在心理时间实验中体验到手与前臂扩大感、看见白发老妇头像、听到鼓声和音乐，并闪过人物和树木片段。

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
About 100 participants undergo psychological-time practice, guided imagery, and quiet rest in randomized crossover design, each 3 times of 30 minutes over 6 weeks; body-size estimation is quantified using an adjustable arm model, and visual and auditory imagery frequency and vividness are recorded. EEG and eye tracking are used to rule out microsleep. The pre-registered primary endpoint is body-size shift, and whether expectancy and imagery ability explain group differences is tested.

Body-Size Distortions and Spontaneous Imagery During Guided Attentional Practice
What it would overturn
Mere replication of these subjective experiences would not overturn existing hypotheses, because body-representation malleability and imagery generation without external input are already allowed by current cognitive frameworks.

Specificity of Seth's formulation
The specific content is an after-the-fact case description and provides no distinguishable prediction for why an elderly woman, music, or arm enlargement must occur.
Note
One should first distinguish 'whether experiences can be induced' from 'whether experiences accurately represent external things'; a positive result on the former does not automatically support the latter.
