Caligula Effect
Sep 18, 2015 13:48
Have you ever had the experience of being tempted to watch something by being told "don't watch it?"
This psychological effect, that you feel tempted to something by being prohibited like this, is called "Caligula Effect."
Since most people place more value on rare things, if something is prohibited or restricted, it will tend to get a lot of attention.
Therefore, if someone say "no trespassing," "don't touch," or "don't tell anyone," some people will get eager to do the opposite to them.
Unfortunately, there are exceptions.
Even if you say "don't study hard" to your children, they will not study.

カリギュラ効果
「見ないで」と言われると、かえって見たくなったという経験はありませんか?
このように何かを禁止されると、余計にそれをやってみたくなる心理的作用のことを、カリギュラ効果と言います。
人は希少性のあるものに価値を置きやすいので、何かが禁止されたり制限されると、それに執着しやすくなります。
そのため、「立入禁止」や「触るな」、「誰にも言うな」などを言われると、その反対のことをしたくなるそうです。
残念ながら、例外もあります。
子供たちに「勉強するな」と言っても、勉強はしないでしょう。
