In his second year at Harvard, Kaczynski participated in a study led by Harvard psychologist Henry Murray. Subjects were told they would debate personal philosophy with a fellow student and were asked to write essays detailing their personal beliefs and aspirations.
The essays were given to an anonymous individual who would confront and belittle the subject in what Murray himself called
"vehement, sweeping, and personally abusive" attacks, using the content of the essays as ammunition.(25] Kaczynski spent 200 hours as part of the study.!261[27]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sd7g4tvhirjb32cufgxgkdvx/bafkreifkyksvmxrcbdqdtxm6n3263yqjtuvlzyyniz6f3kkmbuelsviq6a)
