Hi, I think all of what you say about this kind of study is true. In your responses, yes, to say affirmations after meditation, when the mind is clear must be the best kind of time, and to use the affirmation, like a mantra, to programme the mind in a positive way, rather than in the kind of 'monkey mind' we all tend to have at times, has to have the best results. When one has meditated, one is so much more intuitive too, therefore the positive affirmation will probably bring up results we wouldn't think of otherwise.
Interesting points, having worked in market research myself, the way that questions are constructed and the order of them can definitely alter the results, in true market research this is though about very deeply in constructing a questionnaire in order not to sway the respondent in any way, and thus produce 'true' results. I cannot really comment on this survey without seeing the whole thing, but we always need to bear this in mind when looking at any survey results. I think your questions are valid. I also think affirmations are very good, but once again, we have to be in the right mind-set in order to receive them. hugs to you too x
