Negative subliminal messages work

[candygirl]

"People can perceive subliminal messages, particularly if the message is negative, according to a UK study.

In three experiments at University College London, participants were briefly shown masked words and asked to classify them as emotional or neutral.

The study, published in the journal Emotion, says being able to react to tiny cues helps us to avoid danger and may have useful marketing uses.

But critics say there is no evidence this would work outside a laboratory.

Professor Nilli Lavie from University College London showed 50 participants a series of words on a computer screen.

Each word appeared on-screen for only a fraction of a second - much too fast for the participants to consciously read the word.

The words were either positive (eg cheerful, flower, peace), negative (eg agony, despair, murder) or neutral (eg box, ear, kettle).

After each word, the participants had to choose whether the word was neutral or emotional (positive or negative) and how confident they were of their decision.

The researchers found that the participants answered most accurately when responding to negative words, even when they believed they were merely guessing the answer.

They were able to accurately categorise 66% of the negative words compared to 50% of the positive ones."

this is too true, candy, it could show how conditioning works... and somehow negative effects more than positive... :eek:

so ... is that why we have to work so much harder to be positive... cos the neg vibes ( in our dimension) seem to have more power?

Double Eeeks !:eek:

Too much Fear... seems to work on / in this earthly plane.

they feed on it... that is why

so what do you think of this video , Dont Worry, Be Happy ?

Is it dis-info , or for real?
woohoo , be happy......

[candygirl]

I love that video and song.
All the messages that are fed to us all on a daily basis are all negative and we must all rise above it.
They feed off the negative energy i agree.
What we all give out we get back in some form or another.
Must not be in fear but be happy:) to combat the barrage of negative.

When you know what to look for - ALL TV news uses certain words or phrases biased to manipulate opinion and thoughts.

Same in high volume sheeple programmes, Movies, Documentaries - you just have to be awake to it because it has worked, is working and will continue to work.

Yes it is unbelievable, but true.

Hang on a minute....


emotional or neutral?

emotional = negative, neutral = neutral or positive?

If the subjects experienced an emotion (ie sublime messaging works, but they weren't sure of the emotion perceived), the lab would have to say that we are better at discerning 'negative' words from neutral...

It's a loaded survey...can't you see it?

I wonder who funded the survey? Ah..Wellcome Trust...


Oh...look what I found inside one minute...here (http://www.cpexposed.com/news/)




Julia Middleton and Dr Sophie Petit-Zeman ...Wellcome Trust Prize Scholar
Latest News 20/09/2009

Dr Sophie Petit-Zeman BSc (Hons) PhD co-wrote How to be an Even Better Chair in association with Julia Middleton and Common Purpose.

Sophie left school the day she turned 16, and began her working life in publishing. After about a year, remembering that what she’d enjoyed at school as much as writing was science, she worked as a research technician in the neuropharmacology group at London University Royal Veterinary College. She then took a Pharmacology degree at Kings’ College, London, and a neuroscience PhD (as a Wellcome Trust Prize Scholar; Molecular biology and neurochemistry of the cortical lesion in motor neurone disease: human post-mortem study) at the Institutes of Psychiatry and Neurology.

In 1995, she became the Mental Health Foundation’s first Biomedical Research Manager, and, in 1998, a freelance science, medicine and social care communication specialist, working with the public, voluntary and private sectors in the UK and abroad. This included major writing commissions as well as journalism for lay and professional media and devising and delivering media training. Sophie was lead journalist on Mindout, the Department of Health mental health anti-stigma campaign, and shortlisted as MIND Mental Health Journalist of the Year, 2002.

Her part-fiction part-fact book, Doctor what’s wrong? Making the NHS human again was published by Routledge in June 2005 and her book on chairing voluntary and public sector organisations, based on interviews with leaders in the field, is due out soon (Pearson). Sophie has been Director of Public Dialogue at the Association of Medical Research Charities since December 2004.

They're everywhere...aren't they?
Careful what you swallow now...

Anyone any idea how Sophie got into Uni to do her degree without A-levels? (It doesn't mention in her short bio above that she did them...)

Families, tests, special projects at school?

What's the phrase again....oh yes; 'leading outside your authority'.

I'm not saying it happened in this way, but...someone at CP spoke to some CP graduate at the Uni...bingo....

(Hmmm...there's a knock at my door)

just kidding...but the truth is...I still can't get a friggin' job!

Looks like Common Purpose have managed to get to K in the `How to manipulate the masses` book , chapter 11, K - Know how they think !!

It would explain a lot of things why Orgonite does not work in some instances, why there is very little positive energy around us having positive effects.

Now that was a good post - well done!

Destruction is easier (takes less effort and skill) than construction.

Peace.
