Should you care what your

ParentsThink?

Elsa Vuillet Maïwen Maire

DO NOT PRESS THAT BUTTON.

Reactance Theory

First :- Our freedom's restriction triggers us.- The desire to disobey only incrise. = Doing the forbidden thing.

Research: - University of colorado, 1972. - Surveyed 140 couples.

Result: - Showed those with parental opposition only grew their feelings. = Romeo and Juliet effect.

Social Network Effect

The Romeo and Juliet effect contested.

Reminder

Social Network

"Us or Them" situations almost never happen. It is also not only about good or bad relationship with our family.

How to estimate the longevity of a relationship ?

Two types of reactance

Independent Reactance

Defiant Reactance

  • Doing what we want and care for.
  • Not that impacted by someone else's opinion.
  • Infrige the prohibition, doing even more.
  • Impacted by the opposition.

In conclusion

BUT :

  • Still to recent to have a proper result.
  • Researchers are still on it.
  • Not that clear yet.

ANYWAY :

  • It still helped a lot.
  • Can understand a little better people's reactions.
  • We now know it conditions us a lot.

How is the topic of interest to us ?

Parents' opinions: do they matter?

Quest for identity: who am I?

The weight of conflict between what we want and what our relatives want: who's right?

Jusfication for a lack of empathy?

Thank you!
