Talk:Reverse psychology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am merging the material from "Culture Industry" which was inappropaitely long and determined to deal with two many unrelated topics. Will be back to consolidate it later. -David91 11:01, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] No cleanup necessary.

No really, this article DOES NOT NEED cleaning up. Do NOT clean it up.

This artically only needs minor changes. It will help readers sift through it better.
I could help clean up this article, and add to it. The article at least needs subsections, which won't be hard to do. I would also like to add therapeutic uses of reverse psychology or paradoxical intentions. I will work on it over my christmas break. --whicky1978 02:06, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

I think "Adorno and Horkheimer" section needs to be divided into two paragraphs, instead of one large paragraph.--whicky1978 14:16, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Who added that little gem at the bottom? I love it. -Toptomcat 14:41, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How old is the term?

What are the oldest references to reverse psychology, or to the term itself? Thanks.

[edit] Actually a psycological term?

Is this actually a psycological term? I've always been under the impression that it's just an informal thing.
