Before we can answer the question how do subliminal messages work we must learn a little about subliminal messages. What are subliminal messages, and do they work at all?

The only kind of subliminal message that has been proven to work involves showing very brief text or a simple picture to an audience so briefly they do not consciously perceive it. Other kinds of subliminal messaging has been tried, but there is no evidence that it has any effect. Flashing anything longer than a word or two, or playing recorded speech backwards doesn’t work.

Subliminal means the same thing as subconscious. Showing someone an image for just a few milliseconds is so fast that they can not consciously perceive it. They do perceive it subconsciously, and this perception can effect their behavior.

Researchers have done experiments about subliminal messaging in an attempt to learn how it works. In one experiment there was a very quick name of a soft drink written in the midst of a short movie. After watching the movie, those who had been subliminally messaged were more likely to choose that soft drink than those who had watched a different movie. In another experiment the word “beef” was the subliminal message. After this experiment, the subjects did not prefer beef over other foods, but they were hungrier than the control group was.

There are now companies that market subliminal messages as a way to increase your health or self esteem. They sell tapes that have audio messages recorded backwards. Studies have not shown this to have any effect on the users’ self esteem.

Is there any danger in subliminal messages? Not really. Subliminal messages are not used on TV or in movies, but even if they were, it still would not be dangerous. Subliminal messaging can only provide a slight change. It might influence your choice of what brand to buy, but it couldn’t make you do something against your will. No subliminal message could make you do something you would never do otherwise.

Discover the secret of how subliminal messages work and discover how to make subliminal messages yourself.
