That study was refuted and I've never seen one that proved that flashing images would have any effect on people at all. Subliminal Images In 1957, James Vicary, a market researcher, claimed that patrons at Eat Popcorn a movie theater in were shown two advertising messages, Eat Popcorn and Drink Coca-Cola, while they watched a film. I don't believe that subliminal advertising actually works. If you are aware, then it's not exactly subliminal. If you aren't aware that she's there I don't think she had any influence over you. Like the famous image of the naked women in the ice of a drink in one of those ads. The ones who saw the flashed images responded that they felt happier even if they didn't know why.Д«ut I think mostly what people think of as subliminal messages in advertising is just ad people being clever rather than trying to indirectly influence you.

I think it was something like showing people pictures of smiling faces and then asking them how they feel afterwards.

Most people wouldn't actually consciously register that the character is holding the cup, or what company it was for, but might still feel more inclined to want to buy from that company after seeing the film.Дecember 19, - I can't recall anything specific but I know there have definitely been studies that show that images flashed too quickly to see consciously can have an effect on people. But does it count when they, for example, have a character holding a coffee from a particular chain in a film for a few minutes? I mean, the most obvious example of subliminal messages in advertising is when they flash an image too fast for you to really see. December 19, - I wonder where the line is.
