This claim states that nonhuman entities exert powerful mental control over abductees, affecting perception, movement, memory, and emotional response. Jacobs reports consistent narratives in which experiencers feel commanded telepathically to comply, forget, or remain calm. He interprets this as evidence of deliberate cognitive manipulation rather than psychological dissociation. Evidence includes repeated descriptions of paralysis, forced calm, and mental commands. Conceptually, DSETI treats this as an altered-state phenomenon rather than literal mind control. DSETI evaluates the claim as Moderate symbolically but Weak literally.
