Piaget Effect

The Jean Piaget Effect, also known as the Piaget Effect or the Lore Master Effect, is a psychological effect found in the school of thought known as Constructivism in which the style of speech in an environment has an effect on changing the speech patterns of the individual. This is an off-shoot of Piaget's definition of "accommodation". The process of accommodation involves altering one's existing schemas, or ideas, as a result of new information or new experiences . In this case, the effect is mostly subconscious and expressed through literacy.
After attending some college courses, the Piaget Effect was causing Vinnford to structure his conversations like they were essays and the only way to turn it off was to watch Trailer Park Boys.
