It was a published study. In academia, that is the goal, and the goal was met. Do you really mean to ask why didn't the study authors monetize this? If so, you are looking at academia through startup-tinted lenses.
It's not about monetizing this. But people who know about this, don't they think it could really help lots of people ? and if so aren't they, especially in the fields of psychology, motivated by such things ? Because popularizing this might be the most valuable thing they could do in their professional lives.

#54"To Fall in Love with Anyone, Stare Into Their Eyes for 4 Minutes" I hate business models that work by wasting your time. It's not a bad article though.

What on Earth prompted you to use the phrase 'business model' in this context?

#57In a psychology class I took, we applied this procedure as an in-class exercise, pairing up and asking each other the questions. It works well.
If it works well, is it ethical for a teacher to let you do it as an exercise (simplest example: some of those doing the exercise may be in a relationship with someone not in the class)?

The whole, whole point of her article is that, in that action, you're not choosing love, and won't get it. Read the last sentence of her article again...
The whole point of my comment is that it was a joke. HN, at least officially , frowns on humorous remarks. But I've found that it's not always true. I fully expect that I will be "spontaneously" bombarded with these questions on dates in the coming months. And they will lose all efficacy because people will prepare for them in the same way that they prepare for idiotic brain-teasers and HR questions.

#60I envision is being something that would be fun on a first date as a game.
Also - I've used eye gazing and several variations with profound results in my coaching work -- many of my clients have said that a ~3 minute session is easily the most profound experience of their lives.
