Objective: To assess how prior knowledge of potential future events influences experiences within SCP-699.

Procedure:

Subject selection: Select individuals who have previously experienced significant life events (e.g., major decisions, accidents).

Experiment: Each individual will enter SCP-699 for 10 minutes and observe their future regarding those past events.

Observation: Document their reactions and any discrepancies between what they observed in SCP-699 and their prior knowledge.

Results:

Individuals often experience cognitive dissonance if their future diverges significantly from their expectations based on prior knowledge.

Some individuals report feeling a sense of relief or validation if the future aligns with their past experiences.

Others express frustration or confusion, leading to emotional distress when confronted with unexpected outcomes.
