"Sheep is a sheep" Are you addicted?
Hello everyone, I am Tina, a person who is very curious about "a sheep".
I was curious, what is the fun of this game?
game practitioners said that the gameplay is basically not innovative, and the is amazing because it understands the user's psychology.
I won’t be sleepy if I want to talk about this. Today I will analyze why a sheep can’t stop from a psychological perspective.
1. Shocked! I'm actually a sheep
Where did you hear about a sheep?
in the group, in the circle of friends, forums, and on hot searches... ····
No matter which one, will give you a psychological hint: everyone is playing this game.
This forms [herd effect] .
It means that people have a herd mentality.
Simply put, is to follow the trend and follow the crowd. What others do, I do.
For example, there was a person in the downtown area looking up, and everyone would follow him,
But in fact, except for the first person, everyone didn't know why they looked up, they just joined in the fun.
Isn’t that the same thing for a sheep?
Seeing everyone playing, even if they don’t play games, they want to click on it and join in the fun.
So we became sheep in the flock.
From this perspective, the name is really amazing.
2. Ten minutes of game, 4 hours of human world
Open the sheep at 8 pm and prepare to challenge for ten minutes. As a result, when you exit the game, you saw that it was already eleven o'clock.
Is this talking about you?
This feeling is called "flow" in psychology.
is a psychological state that people show when they focus on a certain behavior.
In the flow state, the individual's mental power will be completely bet on a certain activity.
is a "automatic, highly concentrated sensory state that does not require effort."
generally causes several characteristics of the activity of flow:
all of the above characteristics do not need to exist, there are several that can cause flow to occur.
Let’s compare the sheep with a sheep -
1. The activities we tend to engage in
—the sheep is a sheep, entertainment game, and finally get off work and relax to treat psychological internal friction;
2. Having a clear goal
-but it is too clear, it is to pass the level;
3. Be able to get feedback immediately
-every time determines the life and death of this game, and the feedback is quite in place;
4. Be able to master what you do
--the operation is not difficult;
5. It is within your ability and has certain challenges. It can pass the first closing eye, but it is quite challenging from the second level.
It is precisely because of these characteristics that we forget the time after a sheep.
A small game easily brought us into the state of flow, and it felt like he was being controlled by him.
But in fact, if we can bring the flow state into study and work, it will be of great help to improve our efficiency.
Below is a video of how to enter the flow state that I have done. I hope it can help you find the state.
3. If you can’t stop, you will have another handful of
In addition to forgetting the time, the more terrifying thing about a sheep is that it can’t stop.
If it fails, I want to have another game.
Many friends said that the reason why he never gave up is that he thinks he will pass the level next time.
After all, after playing so many games, it should be his turn, right?
is not true. has a psychological illusion called [gambler fallacy]. says that some people believe that the results of a series of events imply autocorrelation to a certain extent, but this is actually illogical.
For example, if you buy a lottery, the probability of winning the jackpot is one in tens of millions. Although you have not won the jackpot a thousand times, , the probability of winning the jackpot next time will not increase because you have failed many times, it is still one in tens of millions.
The probability of a sheep passing is the same. It will not be easy because you pass the level all night.
Even if you play it for ten thousand times, the probability of passing the level is the same, so don’t be fooled by the gambler in your heart!
IV. You exist in my deep mind
There are many people who have already lying on the bed and closed their eyes,
As a result, there seems to be a voice in my mind, saying to him, "I've got a sheep" "I've got a sheep", "I've got a sheep",
Do you feel so angry?
This is actually a memory effect called Zeignik effect.
Zeignik memory effect means that people are more impressed by things that have not been processed than things that have been processed.
For example, if you are fascinated by a novel, you will stay up late to read it even if you have an important meeting tomorrow morning, and the first thing you do when you wake up the next day is to continue reading.
This is actually because people are born with a driving force for doing things that have a beginning and an end.
If you don’t believe it, you can draw a circle and leave a small gap at the end. At this time, if you look at it again, you will definitely be inclined to complete this circle.
It is precisely because of this effect that there is no sheep that has passed the level and has always been in our deep minds.
Conclusion
Having said so much, should I play with a sheep? Of course, it is okay to play with
casually, but if it affects sleep and work, it is really not worth the money to buy a strategy for passing the level.
I am Tina, see you next time!
