EXPLANATION

The subliminal message refers to the message or signal that is made to pass below the usual limits of perception. The subliminal message goes into our unconscious mind, where the conscious mind does not realize this. The subliminal message is in the deeper part of the mind. At first, the subliminal message is briefly transmitted through the conscious mind, but it will eventually be perceived unconsciously.

To put it in a more simpler way, a subliminal message, either sound or image message, will be perceived by the deeper parts of the single integrated mind. In daily practices, people use the subliminal message for propaganda purposes and advertising. The subliminal message is trying to be put in the unconscious part of the mind so that people will do a specific thing for the advantage of a specific community.

The term subliminal message was first used in the year 1957. It is included in the book titled “The Hidden Persuaders”, and it was written by Vance Packard. The book is about movie theaters who use the subliminal messages for the customers. The subliminal message is for the customers to buy coca-cola and popcorn at the movie theater. Later, people found out that the study was fabricated and the author admitted it. Years after this, the book “Subliminal Seduction” was published, and it was true subliminal techniques that are used in advertising.
