Kangaroo Effect

A social phenomenon where individuals or groups expend more effort and resources when progressing slowly towards a goal, as opposed to when moving swiftly and decisively. This mirrors the biological quirk of kangaroos, who use more energy to move slowly than they do at higher speeds due to their unique muscular and tendon structure.

The team experienced the Kangaroo Effect while working on the project; they were burning out during the planning phase, but once they started executing their tasks, they progressed much more efficiently.

TAPE Effect

When a party is being thrown and someone either texts the host, or somebody at the party, if they can show up even though they were not originally invited.

Sonya texted Alfred at 10:30 if she and two friends could pull up to Byron’s function even though the party was already in full swing. Sonya contributed to the TAPE Effect. This and opening a pack of gum in class in front of everybody give off the same energy. Everybody wants a piece.
