1. Consider this experiment.
1. Consider this experiment.
2. Two groups of people were asked to watch TV.
3. And while they were watching, a picture flashed on the screen, less than a second, very quickly so it was barely noticeable.
4. The picture was a boy with a birthday cake.
5. Now like I said, there were two groups, and each group saw a slightly different version of the picture.
6. One group got the boy looking angry.
7. In fact he was actually throwing the cake on the floor.
8. The other group got a picture of the boy smiling, happy, holding out the cake like he was offering it.
9. Same boy, same cake, but different emotions expressed in each picture.
10. Everyone was then asked to look at a different image.
11. Now this is a third image, right?
12. Again it's the boy and the cake, but this time the image stayed on the screen.
13. In this picture, the boy is just holding the cake, basically no emotion on his face, everything very neutral.
14. Now remember, nobody knew they'd already seen a picture of this boy.
15. After a minute, everyone was asked to describe the boy's personality.
16. Those who'd been exposed to the image of the angry boy, they generally described the boy's personality negatively.
17. Those who'd earlier seen the happy boy described him, well, positively.
A sample Answer to this speaking in text:
In the lecture, the professor talks about subliminal perception, which means sometimes, our perception of a stimulus can occur without our awareness. In the study, two groups people were asked to watch TV, while the program the first group watched contained a flash of image of an angry boy throwing a cake on the floor, the second group of people got a picture of the boy smiling, happily holding the cake. Then both group of people were then asked to see a third, a still image of the boy holding the cake without emotion. When asked to describe the boy’s personality, the first group of people described the boy’s personality as negative, the second group described it positively.
