Is this a legitimate psychology principle?

Post Body

The question is: What evidence is there that a "subconscious" mind actually exists, and has any level of independence from conscious intentions?

By that I mean, the popular notion that we can have a "shadow mind" that is involuntary and fully autonomous that picks and chooses to insert decisions, or prioritize information, without an executive decision from the whole consciousness.

To buttress this and prevent wish-y wash-y pseudoscience nonsense, let's keep it to studies with falsifiable claims and conclusions that can be replicated reliably.
