Decisions are made before you are ever consciously aware of making a choice. Free will is an illusion of the mind.
Affirmation are thus really important because your unconscious mind makes decisions for you. |
In my opinion that research data points to different conclusions.
When you get into a Q&A with your higher wisdom (guide / self / etc.) you often notice that you get an answer before you finish asking your question. It is like whatever you decide to ask happened at another level than your conscious, and it takes a finite amount of delay until you become conscious of your own question. The higher wisdom that replies gets access to your question faster than your conscious.
The experiment you pointed to, shows the same thing.
So, the conclusion is that the conscious you isn't the one that controls your actions, but a subconscious you does that.
Coming back to this thread's question(s), your conscious doesn't have free will, because it just tunes into what your subconscious wills, but that doesn't mean that the future is predetermined.
