How much of your life does your subconscious actually run?

Resolves to a mark once decided

◑ Partly Confirmed

"Roughly 95% of daily behavior is run by the subconscious mind, not conscious choice."

Verification window: Ongoing — widely cited, not rigorously measured

Maybe's Notes

The "95%" figure is a staple in mind-body circles and captures a real idea — much of behavior is automatic and habitual. But it's an estimate, not a precisely measured number, and researchers put the figure all over the map. Directionally supported, specifically unproven.

How Maybe weighs this

These aren't expert ratings — Maybe is ordinary people doing careful homework, and we show our weighing so you can judge our judgment, not just accept it. Three simple measures, reflecting only the one summarized episode — never the source's full body of work.
