The Bingham Psychological Initiative (BPI) is a multinational company with HQ based in Scotland. Their work consists of investigations and assignments on the application of psychology in the area of behaviour modification and mind altering. Until 22 June 1984 it was a secret operation which frequently tested small groups of individuals without their awareness or consent breaking the ethical codes in the disipline.

BPI was founded in 1973 by Dr. Francis Brand who, himself a psychologist, became interested in the possiblities of mind control after WW2; questions over an innate evil inside the Nazi soliders fueled the creation of BPI and it's psychological experiments. Other WW2 issues included leadership and the ability to influence people, As The introduction of BPI to applicants video states, "It’s important to know who the leaders are and who followers are". The work of BPI quickly changed to controlling people's behaviour against their will.

Example's of BPI experiments are;

1   Recording human responses to different emotions. These were usually two tailed experiments with only 2-3 Independant variables.

2   They tried to work on parapsychology however 99% of attempts failed. 3   Using situations, in theory similar to rat's maze, for humans to work through. Later other types of social situations were tested including workplace, schools, universities, churches, on major and minor holidays, quiz nights and special events.

In his infamous book (2005), "Purpose driven House group", author and investigator Elvis Velvet has a chapter devoted to his work as an "applicant" for BPI. He leaked the applicants training video onto the internet and youtube; it can be watched at any time.

He describes the BPI's greatest psychological experiment was to take place in 2010; codename "The Final Showdown" (I'm sure someone will assume this is the code word however it is not). The Final Showdown was an experiment to see if one experimentor could get a group of 10-15 applicants to complete the quiz situation. The independant variables were gender, personality type and leadership ability based on Fielder's model.

The current leadership of BPI deny invovlement in the Final Showdown stating it is all part of Velvet's "awkward take of the work we do"
