Talk:Zeigarnik effect

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I postulate that the Zeigarnik effect is the reason that when you stop listening to a song before it is finished and leave (i.e. not listen to another song), the song gets stuck in your head and you keep repeating it over and over until you finish it. BLAH BLAHPoromenos 00:21, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Zeigarnik (pronounced how?) effect; occurs all the time to me

The song example is a good one & frequently happens to me. Similar to the formerly close relationships with people which have become distant to the point of absence but never had closure enough to be forgotten?
