Your objection is about an entirely different issue (psychology of consumer behavior).This was about human responses to a certain kind of acoustic stimulation. The study was controlled, and clearly shows that in the cases in which there were responses in deepseated (subliminal and autonomous) brain functions (as shown by changes in blood flow and electrical activity), the listeners also subjectively felt something different. And what this "difference" is about we don't really know, but the listeners articulated it as a feeling of personal preference (greater enjoyment, summing up from the questionnaire replies). I thought it was interesting.
What's the troubling part of this? Just curious about your strong reaction.
