Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around a personal study focused on the concept of suggesting actions to individuals without verbal communication. Participants explore the nature of this suggestion, the conditions under which it occurs, and the methods of engaging subjects in this process.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant describes their study as involving non-verbal suggestions to prompt simple actions, emphasizing that subjects remain conscious and are not under hypnosis.
  • Another participant inquires whether the suggestions involve visual cues, external stimuli, or telepathy, seeking clarification on the method.
  • A different participant suggests that the approach likely aligns with external stimuli, indicating a need for further definition.
  • Concerns are raised about the lack of training for subjects, with one participant asking how the study will be conducted and what methodologies will be employed.
  • Another participant requests more detailed information regarding the study's goals, methodologies, and how responses will be measured to provide meaningful feedback.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express a lack of consensus regarding the specifics of the study, including its methodology and the nature of the suggestions being made. There is a general agreement on the need for more information to facilitate constructive feedback.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include unclear definitions of key terms such as "external stimuli" and the specific mind states of subjects. The methodology and measurement of responses remain undefined.

(sorry on the un-official sounding of this post)

I have been conducting my own little crazy study, and I wish to get responses, and critisism for this.

This whole thing is sort of along the lines of suggesting to the person without speaking to do something.

Now, the thing is that you can't make them going around and killing people. All they do is do something simple like pick up a bowl.

None of this is done with hypnosis, the person is completely awake, concious, but they have to be in a certain mind state (as apposed to being completely off the wall, like a major case of ADHD).

I wanted to keep this post short (and it seemed random), so if you want more detail, you can ask.

Are you talking about visual clues, external stimuli, or telepathy?
 
it's probably along the lines of external stimuli if I'm thinking of that definition right.

Can you explain how you plan to accomplish training the subjects? It's impossible to give you feedback on what you're doing/thinking without any information.
 
Well, the subjects aren't trained at all. It's just any person in a certain mind state (something along the lines of them being in deep thought, or trying to remember how to do something, like in cooking, or playing with clay)
 
You've asked for responses and criticism, but haven't provided a sufficient explanation of what you're doing for us to comment much at all. What's your goal, what's your methodology, how will you measure responses, etc?
