Overview
Mentalist use them all the time, little triggers that cause the audience to respond or behave in a particular manner. I plan to make a database of these triggers, questions, and high probability answers.
Uses
- When combined with a gargoyle type system, it could alert a user that they're being manipulated.
- Could display the response they're supposed to have so they can actively not do it.
Examples
- When asked to think of a vegetable, 98% of the population will choose carrot.
- When asked to choose a number between 1 and 20, most people will say 17. Source
