It's like the Derren Brown episode where people were less likely to cheat on a test/game if they believed a chair in the room had a ghost sitting in it!

what the study lacks is a control sign without the eye graphic saying something like - "you're being watched" or "we monitor cycle theft in this area".

interesting none the less. I might put one on my shed.

no, the large rabid dogs that live in my shed would eat them thinking they were thieves.
