Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.In the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they wou1d be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren，t.
