When something is recommended to you repeatedly, so much so that it puts you off said thing forever.

Man, I never ended up watching that movie due to the basketball diary effect - it was recommended to me so many times, I just started rewatching Party of Five.

screen time resolution effect

The phenomenon where children are more accepting of new screen time limits imposed by parents during significant periods such as New Year, birthdays, the start of the school year, or Ramadan, compared to normal days like a busy Wednesday.
