The Secret Weakness of North East Investors
- mahmud 17y agoI clicked on the article thinking it was going to be an application of "Temporal Priming" to fund raising, but it wasn't. So here to salvage your minute and mine, are some of my own pointers. I just watched a program on SBS (an Australian TV station) about a study done in Yale where the judgment of human subjects were altered based on the temperature they were exposed to. Experiment participants were told they were interviewing a job candidate and they had to give their honest personal impression of the man. However, the examiners surreptitiously gave some participants a cup of cold beverage to hold, while they gave the others a hot one. Everyone who held the hot cup gave favorable impressions, while those who held cold beverages gave negative impressions.

- messel 17y agoThat's some fascinating cogsci. I'm only chattering on about my own observations so it's nice to read external studies. So the post was/wasn't something you were looking for? Looking up Temporal Priming left me pretty confused could you elaborate on what you were expecting? Ahh, nevermind. You meant when is it best to seek out seed funding/follow on rounds.
