Abstract
The author has proposed five rules that permit conscious observers to be included in quantum mechanics. In the present paper, these rules are applied to the observation of a non-local pair of correlated particles. Rule (4) again prevents an anomalous result. Two different kinds of relativistic state reduction are considered, where these differ in the way that they impose boundary conditions in Minkowski space. In response to a problem that arises in this context, we require the Lorentz invariance of stochastic hits. And finally, it is claimed that the rules proposed by the author are themselves relativistically covariant with some qualification. Key Words: brain states, boundary conditions, consciousness, decoherence, macroscopic superposition, probability current, von Neumann, wave collapse.
