Psychologist Stephen Jay Lynn conducted a simulated hypnosis experiment in 1994, asking patients to imagine they had seen bright lights and experienced lost time. 91% of subjects who had been primed with questions about UFOs stated that they had interacted with aliens.
[13] Harvard University professor Richard McNally has found that many Americans who believe they have been abducted by aliens share personality traits such as New Age beliefs and episodes of sleep paralysis accompanied by hypnopompic hallucinations. In laboratory tests, these individuals exhibited measurable stress symptoms such as elevated heart-rate and sweating responses, similar to those of Vietnam veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
[14] The experiment led McNally to conclude, "Emotion does not prove the veracity of the interpretation."
[13] Psychiatrist, John Edward Mack, M.D., founder of the department of psychiatry at The Cambridge Hospital in 1969, and member of the faculty Harvard Medical School, disagrees with McNally's conclusions, stating that, according to Psychology Today, diagnosis of sleep paralysis along with "Sci-Fi Channel" beliefs is not sufficient explanation for phenomena such as "alien sightings by school children in Zimbabwe who are wide-awake."

After looking over the children being interviewed (in the original two clips), I can honestly tell you that they were being lead.
(1) Watch their eye movement when responding to questions. Some of them look like they are reading from a card, or they are being visually cued to answer in a certain way. Other words, something is happening off camera to get the children to respond in a specific way.
(2) Listen to the questions being asked. The interviewer is leading them with the questions.
Psychology is somewhat of a specialty of mine, so it was easy to pick up on this fraud experience. Thanks for the videos.
In Zecharia Sitchin's book, "The Wars Of Gods And Men", he gives his interpretation of ancient texts which strongly suggest that there was an actual 'war' involving "gods" around (roughly) 9000 B.C. . . . and which ended in a "peace treaty" of sorts between factions of EN.LIL and EN.KI, the rival half-brothers. I agree with Sitchin that these "gods" (and "goddesses") were the political, military, and scientific leaders of The Anunnaki on Earth. They were apparently *very* humanlike . . . and "we" are descended from them, in-combination-with some indigenous 'hominoid' genes (Neanderthal, according to Lloyd Pye's opinion and research) or else in-combination-with some 'hominid' genes (Homo Erectus, according to Sitchin's opinion and research). [This genetic engineering, done by The Anunnaki themselves, accounts for the so-called unexplained "missing link" in the 'Darwinian' theory of the 'Evolution' of humans].

I agree..... Psychology is a subject which when viewed correctly can teach you a lot about people..... such as eye movement and slight smiles!

the evidence seems to indicate this actually did happen and from what i remember , the witnesses have never changed their story.
the question is....why are they interested in children ?
here are some pictures of aliens drawn by children and they look very similar to what the kids in south Africa drew

Pathos and Mist,
I think that no worthy psychologist of this "name" can assert what be saying you two.
And you two, from what you say, are obvious that you are not of the psychologists.
What it is happened in that school is very serious, in a case or the other: Because if this is a lie repeated from 62 (sixtytwo) CHILDREN (from the seven to the twelve years old) and if this were true, Then we find ourselves in front of to a case never happened in the history of the children's psycology.
The other case is that those children have seen this that they have reported to the psychologists and they have designed it.

Of course you are joke...
You are not a psycologist.
The "things" you said are the proof that you are not what you said to be.
Maybe All.... but not a psycologist.
Please.

Childhood's End is a science fiction novel by Sir Arthur C. Clarke, dealing with the role of Mind in the cosmos and the plausible implications of that role for the evolution of the human race. It was originally published in 1953 but first appeared as a 1950 short story titled "Guardian Angel" in Famous Fantastic Mysteries magazine.
Coming from someone who can't spell psychology? You also have a problem with grammar. Unless you have something to punch with, I would hold off on your inability to defend such a case. Since you have no factual evidence to solidify your claims, I would be really careful on what you call 'truth'. At least I am using my educational experiences to tell me the difference between fact and fiction. What do you have?

I re-re-read your posts, but I have not found nothing of interesting.
You say so vague and generic things fruit of a your personal interpretation. Do you read wrong books of psycology?
I do not want to offend to you and perhaps you have a personal inerest in the Psycology, BUT you, if you say of being a psychologist, you cannot say what you say…
This case it has been analyzed by Psycologist more competent than you, and this case to RUWA, remains, for the psychologists, an ENIGMA!
