Mind Control Tricks: Magicians' Forcing and Free Will.

Alice Pailhès1, Gustav Kuhn2.   

Abstract

A new research program has recently emerged that investigates magicians' mind control tricks, also called forces. This research highlights the psychological processes that underpin decision-making, illustrates the ease by which our decisions can be covertly influenced, and helps answer questions about our sense of free will and agency over choices.
