Subliminal anchoring: The effects of subliminally presented numbers on probability estimates
Article Abstract:
Participants are presented subliminally with a low or high anchor value and asked to estimate the probability of an epidemic, with some asked to do so quickly, to verify the theory that if attention is paid to a supraliminally presented number, a subsequent quantitative estimate assimilates towards this number, called the anchor effect. It is observed that a significant anchor effect emerges only under time pressure.

Unconscious authorship ascription: The effects of success and effect-specific information priming on experienced authorship
Article Abstract:
The idea that authorship experiences may result from an unconscious authorship ascription process obtained from cues of a possible link between own actions and observed effects were tested. The results suggest that feelings of authorship result from expectations of matches that can be guided by enhanced accessibility of effect-specific information or the concept of success itself.
