Subliminal messages
5 Answers
I understand that subliminal messages cannot be used on TV - ads, or in cinemas etc. but is there a good reason why subliminal learning cannot take place in schools i.e. on computer screens, or the teachers' interactive whiteboard, and make learning/positive thinking easier for teenagers?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.There is no proof to suggest that subliminal messaging actually works, but it is still considered taboo to employ it, as it affects free will (shops tried it with music at one point, and although their sales didn't increase significantly they still pulled the idea as immoral). On computer screens subliminal messages could well spark eplieptic fits and damage eyesight (you try focusing on a flashing image and see how soon your eyes boggle) and it would be too expensive and difficult to implement.
It was stated in a previous answer that it would be expensive to implement but that is not the case after a brief search on the internet I found this site http://www.sublearn.com and if you go to the evidence section there is quite a bit to sugest that it could be benificial to use a subliminal learning aid, also the bbc has run a couple stories on subliminal learning
