Abstract:
Adaptive behavior following subliminal stimulation with "Mommy and I are One" (MIO) is a poorly understood finding. Positive mood may explain adaptive behavior, but we replicated an earlier finding that effects can also include negative mood. Color naming in a Stroop paradigm was slower on "symbiosis" words (Cohen's d = .19 to .56). Perhaps a "oneness" structure if primed has different affective correlates in different participants.
