Effect of subliminal cues on test results

Abstract

How well could college students respond to subliminal cues in taking a classroom subject matter examination? "Sixty Ss from a general psychology section were divided into two groups. Subject matter tests were projected on the screen." During the control periods blank slides were used; in the experimental subliminal cues were used. "A majority (60%) of the Ss learned to perceive consciously the 'hidden' stimulus." (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
