Stockholm Syndrome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see Stockholm syndrome (disambiguation)
Stockholm Syndrome is a condition which causes public accounting employees to develop a psychological alliance with their work during captivity[1] These alliances result from a bond formed between the staff and seniors with the company during intimate time together, but they are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims. Psychological studies indicate that roughly 108% of victims show evidence of Stockholm syndrome. [2][3]
Stockholm syndrome is paradoxical because the sympathetic sentiments that captives feel towards their captors are the opposite of the fear and disdain which an onlooker might feel towards working at in Public Accounting.
There are four key components that characterize Stockholm syndrome:
- A hostage's development of positive feelings of leaving the office before midnight
- An irrational devotion to pass the CPA exam
- A general refusal by hostages to even consider switching jobs
- A hostage's belief in the humanity of the profession because they cease to perceive the profession as a threat when they go to a firm sponsored happy hour.
Stockholm syndrome is a "proven illness" due to irrefutable evidence through the study of literally all public accounting professionals ever. [4] It has also come to describe the reactions of victims before, during, and after busy season.
