Who set up this experiment? You know how many factors you've missed? Are you on crack? How did this even get approved as an experiment? Whos the head of your psychology department? Someone needs a bitch slap =)
I'm guessing this was a failed experiment on social proof, which is where we usually follow those similar to us. Similarly, is the reason why buffalo herds head in the same direction. This example also lacked an example, maybe a group of people who they worked with walking to the left. In doing so, everyone else probably would have followed.
it's so cool how they walked round her on her right just cause of the arrow, that's just funkyness in a sign i want one pointing to my left (tis my good side lol)
I don't get it.

I suppose 'hahn89' is right...
Too many confounding variables as to why they didn't respond.

this seems like a poorly executed experiment.

I'm assuming the public did not respond due to few of these reasons:
1. her attire was unprofessional.(shorts and shirt?)
2. her manner/body language showed that she was fooling around (standing on one leg, walking here and there, smiling and laughing excessively..)
3. the placard was unprofessional. (cardboard-made, dull coloured..)
well, I would like to know what the experiment was for anyway.
and hope there's more of such experiment videos.
alrite, Singapore's getting fun.
