なぜ、人はこんなにも他人の目を恐れるのか【心理学×歴史】

In an empty room, we're a little sloppy. Yet, the moment the doorbell rings, we instantly revert to being "proper people." On the train, we're vaguely aware of the stares of those around us. Afterward, we regret a word we said in a meeting. The read receipt on a message never appears. —It's not like anyone dislikes us. Yet, we're always being watched by "someone" in our heads. But we still don't know the true identity of that "someone." Why do adults become so concerned with what others think? Psychology and history offer surprisingly profound answers to this invisible gaze. Therein lies a major misunderstanding that we've been carrying alone. ▼Table of Contents 0:00 Prologue — The People Watching You 0:49 Chapter 1: There Was No Audience 4:18 Chapter 2: Why Does the Brain Create a Non-Existent Audience? 7:40 Chapter 3: The Cage Called Society 12:08 Chapter 4: The Cage Kills People from Within 15:28 Chapter 5: We Gave the Audience Numbers 18:48 Final Chapter — If Our Eyes Meet Tomorrow ▼About This Channel The Layers of the Heart of History [History x Psychology] History from all times and places, and the latest psychology.

In an experiment where participants walked in public wearing embarrassing T-shirts, it was shown that people overestimated the number of people who noticed their appearance and actions to approximately twice the actual number. Approximately half of the gazes you perceive as receiving never actually existed in the first place. [Evolutionary Psychology/Human Sociality] Roy F. Baumeister & Mark R. Leary "The Need to Belong: Desire for Interpersonal Attachments as a Fundamental Human Motivation" (Psychological Bulletin, 1995) —A review arguing that the "need to belong" is a fundamental human motivation. In an era when people lived in groups of several dozen and being ostracized meant certain death, the concern about "being disliked" was a mechanism for protecting life. Background to Chapter 2. [History/Society (Japan)] Kinya Abe, "What is 'Society'?" (Kodansha Gendai Shinsho, 1995) —A classic work discussing the historical origins of "Society," a norm without faces or names. People feared "Society" more than the laws of the authorities or God. Why was the punishment of exclusion from the community, exemplified by ostracism, so severe? The basis for Chapter 3. [Literature] Natsume Soseki, Kokoro (1914) —The "teacher" is constantly judged by an "invisible eye" within himself for a crime unknown to anyone.

[Social Comparison (Supplement)] Leon Festinger, "A Theory of Social Comparison Processes" (Human Relations, 1954) —People cannot help but compare themselves to others in order to measure their own worth.
