==Backpacker's Amnesia==
Just a thought regarding this. Within my hiking group we often joke about 'Hiker's Amnesia', which is the state that occurs after a particularly long and difficult hike. When you come off the trail you may swear to sell your gear and live the rest of your life in a chair, but as little as a week later when the next hike begins, you're right at the front of the line. --[[User:24.4.183.207|24.4.183.207]] 23:32, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

==Evaluation for Psych 101==
I believe that is article is informative but vague. The information is backed up with a reference and an example on an experiment. In order for it to be reliable,it needs to be more descriptive with several credible sources.

Doesn't the experiment described in the second paragraph (painful noises versus painful followed by less-painful noises) tend to disprove the peak-end rule? It's a shame there's no citation for it. 67.158.76.243 02:20, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

'Disprove'? How does this disprove the peak end rule? Let's say it hurts a bit more more to be punched in the nose than to be punched in the shoulder. I give you the choice, get punched in the nose, or get punched in the nose and then punched in the shoulder. Which would you pick? The peak-end rule says that the brain will experience the first (just getting punched in the nose) as a worse experience than the second (getting punched in the nose and in the shoulder). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.184.235.6 (talk) 12:27, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed this article is totally rotten. read it again and fix it. the examples refutes the rule. SHIMONSHA (talk) 18:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
