David Jacobs is a retired Temple University history professor who spent much of his career conducting hypnosis-based interviews with individuals reporting alien abduction experiences, ultimately developing theories proposing a systematic, multi-generational alien breeding program.
Assessment
Jacobs’s reliance on hypnotic regression has been strongly criticized by mainstream psychologists as a method prone to producing false memories, a methodological concern that distinguishes his work from the more clinically cautious approach of John Mack, and his specific breeding-program theories are not accepted outside a narrow segment of abduction researchers.
