Editor's Notes
- The unconscious and the subconscious are vastly different, though non-psychiatric professionals often incorrectly use subconscious. In contrast to the unconscious, the subconscious mind lies just below consciousness, and it is easily accessible if attention is paid to it. For instance, you might know someone’s phone number. This information is not stored in your conscious mind, but in your subconscious. If you think about it, you can produce the phone number, but it isn’t simply floating around in your conscious mind. You need to direct your attention to memory in order to dredge up the phone number. Those memories you can recall easily are not conscious unless you pay attention and focus. When someone asks you to describe your perfect day, you reach into your subconscious mind for these memories. However, if someone asked you to describe the worst day you ever had, especially if it was particularly traumatic, you might not really be able to describe the worst. You’d be able to discuss memories in your subconscious that were memorably bad, but a truly traumatic day could be in part, or completely repressed. In this way, one of the differences between the unconscious and the subconscious is that, at least in Freud’s estimation, the unconscious worked as a protecting force on the mind, even if this protection was wrongly guided. Really finding the most traumatic day of your life might mean significant therapy to access layers of memory buried away from both from conscious and subconscious, deeply hidden in the mind.

- A subliminal message is a signal or message embedded in another medium, designed to pass below the normal limits of the human mind’s perception. These messages are unrecognizable by the conscious mind, but in certain situations can affect the subconscious mind and can negatively or positively influence subsequent later thoughts, behaviors, actions, attitudes, belief systems and value systems. The term subliminal means "beneath a limen" (sensory threshold). This is from the Latin words sub, meaning under, and limen, meaning threshold. Perception Without Awareness Perception without awareness is the implanting of an idea without the subject being aware of it. An everyday example of this priming in action is when someone whistles a tune and then sometime later you start to whistle the same tune. A third party observing the two of you would see exactly what happened. But you remain oblivious to the way the tune entered your mind. You might not even remember your friend whistling it first. In 1999 Adrian North, David Hargreaves and Jennifer Mckendrick of the University of Leicester staged a psychology experiment in a wine shop. They found that when French music was played in the shop 77% of the wine sold that day was French. When German music was played 73% of the wine sold on that day was German. The nationality of the music was changed on alternate days over a two week period. When questioned after their purchases 86% of the customers said categorically that the music did not affect their choice. In a later experiment Dr North showed that music could also be used to significantly to prime the sense of taste. In this situation a wine tasting was held against a background of different types of music. Wine tasted against a background of powerful and heavy music was described as heavy. At the other extreme, wine tasted against a background of soft mellow music was described as mellow. The subject's perception of taste had been unknowingly altered by the music they heard. The extent to which people can be primed by the words they read has been shown by several experiments, notably one by Bargh, Chen and Burrows in 1996. Subjects studied sets of words and unscrambled them to make sentences. Half of the subjects had sentences with many words that related to stereotypes of old age: slow, wrinkled, feeble etc. The other subjects had neutral words. When they completed their scrambled sentence test walked down a corridor to deliver their paper. The subjects primed with words relating to old age, walked far slower along the corridor than their colleagues as if they had taken on an aspect of the words they were reading. 3 years ago taste test MRI scans – treacted to brands coke and pepsi – lower brain (freud theory)
