And you say to me as a participant, because you've been selected out to specifically never having had this experience.

And just to be clear, a weapon, I don't mean a semi-automatic weapon.

I mean anything.

And usually it was a rock.

And so people would say, because a weapon is just anything you use to hurt another person.

And I did the study in Canada.

We don't have guns in the same way as in some other parts of the world.

And so it was unlikely that my participants would have been like, yeah, I totally have all these guns.

And so they would take something, an object, and hurt somebody else, or they stole something, or they hit somebody.

So those are three of the conditions.

And I randomly assigned people to them.

And...

They knew that I'd contacted their loved ones ahead of time.

So they were participating in a childhood memory study, an emotional childhood memory study.

And they knew that.

And then I'd contacted their parents ahead of time to get information about what they were like as teenagers, where they lived, friends, basic things, and to make sure they hadn't ever experienced any of the Target events.

And then with that information, I said to the participants, okay, so there's these two things your parents report happening, and one of them is a true one.

And so I'd always include a true one to build rapport, which is... I'm doing the what not to do of interviewing, right?

Right.

I'm laying it on thick.
