Get the spectaculicious mug.Biases that originate from an individual that is not particularly involved within an activity and is only observing from a far. The 'spectator' becomes observant and more critical of certain details as they are only analyzing and is not under any pressure to preform unlike the person involved in the activity. Therefore, if the spectator is placed within a different environment, he or she would not be able to pick up on certain details unlike the observant position. This is a more generalized term, similar to Backseat gaming.
People watching sports through television is subjected to spectator bias as they are not under the pressure of the situation.

Get the pull a specter mug.A term common to Scientology jargon, and used famously by Tom Cruise in an interview to describe the apathy of people unwilling to commit to said doctrine - which he views as synonymous with helping the world.
Somewhat ironically, following the sentence in which Cruise uses the term - which is not in any formal dictionary, and could easily be supplanted by the use of a word such as "spectating" - he proceeds to discuss the responsibility Scientologists have "to educate."
