CASA GRANDE, Ariz. - AussieJournal -- Robert King, the Project Manager of the NDE OBE Research Project at ndeobe.com, a study on out-of-body experiences (OBEs), released a 59-page paper on July 16, 2021, reporting the findings from phase 1, which are based on 106 participants reporting 116 perceived OBEs. The report is available free to the public at:
http://dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.23418.82882/1
This study identified various types of OBEs, basing the primary categorization first on intent as either not self-induced or deliberately self-induced. Not self-induced OBEs were then further subcategorized based on the experient's condition or state, which included physiologically near-death OBEs (NDOBEs), life-danger OBEs (LDOBEs), life-danger-to-near-death OBEs (LD-NDOBEs), and other spontaneous OBEs (OSOBEs). While this study was not able to identify with certainty any specific catalysts for OBEs, it resulted in King suggesting that the catalyst for NDOBEs, LDOBEs, and LD-NDOBEs may be an unconscious, adaptive, reactionary process triggered by various psychological and/or physiological stimuli initiating a non-pathological dissociation or detachment. Furthermore, King also questioned any hypothesis asserting that just being in a physiological near-death situation is in itself a catalyst for a perceived OBE, instead suggesting that some of the variable psychological and/or physiological factors that often accompany such a condition may be contributory in those cases.

Furthermore, this study found that there were both commonalities and differences among different types and subtypes of OBEs as categorized in this study. One such finding was that most of the features reported in OBEs that took place during real physiological conditions of near-death were also found in some OBEs in which individuals were not actually near death, and even among those experiences in which the experients did not even believe they were dying. In particular, this included features such as perceptions of seeing one's own physical body, experiencing a lack of pain, feeling a sense of peace, experiencing different perceptions of time, having a visual life review experience, seeing OBE personages, observing a bright light, encountering tunnels, and experiencing a transcendental otherworldly type of environment.
In addition, while most OBEs take place while the physical body is in a prone position with muscular relaxation and cessation of movement during a state of somatic unconsciousness, sleep, or meditative repose, this is not always the case. The study reported over 18 cases of observed somatic continuance in which the physical body persists in what appears to be self-sustaining, autonomous or semi-autonomous behavior, such as sitting erect, standing, walking, running, or performing other actions while the consciousness of that physical body appears to be watching that body from a distant vantage point.
