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.

The Sands Effect

The Sands Effect occurs when you spend a night out drinking and get lucky enough to bring a girl back to your place. You only got the girl over because you were drunk and loose and free of any pressure. But because you were drunk your cock stays limp as if it were filled with sand. And because of this, sex is not and option. You go out the next night without drinking hoping to get the same girl over once more. You see the girl and at first she seems willing, but sober you is not good enough to get the girl over. So that night you go home with a cock harder than a rock, but with no female, only your left hand. And that ladies and gentleman is the sands effect.

Pygmalion Effect

The Pygmalion Effect explains that people tend to perform up to the level that others expect of them. This effect explains why our relationships are usually self-fulfilling prophecies. Once you set expectations for somebody, that person will tend to live up to that expectation, whether it's good or bad.
But the Pygmalion Effect also applies to your personal growth. Your beliefs about yourself impact your actions towards others, which influence their beliefs about you and their actions towards you.
Positive expectations influence performance positively, and negative expectations influence performance negatively. ... In educational circles, this has been termed the Pygmalion Effect, or more colloquially, a self-fulfilling prophecy.
