What is a child's duck syndrome?
Baby duck syndrome is a term used to indicate the tendency of computer users to prefer systems that are learning and reject unknown. In addition to the application for operating systems, children's duck syndrome applies to software programs, keyboard layout and other electronics. This concept has a solid foundation in psychology because many people have a known preference to maintain the current situation than to explore new possibilities. He learned that when the baby birds hatched, he "prints" anything he first sees, be it a parent. Lorenz has been perfectly given several goslines clutches to imprint, and there are some charming photos of Lorenzo that teach young geese to swim, eat and perform other tasks. For example, someone who learns to use the Linux operating system usually rejects alternative operating systems, sometimes including other versions of Linux. Likewise, someone who learned to write with Microsoft Word could fight WordPerfect, very similar to PRogram and people accustomed to QWERTY keyboard do not like the layout of the courtyard.
Some people have suggested that children's duck syndrome can hurt computer users because they prevent their interest in exploring alternatives. It can be very difficult to transfer people to new programs, systems and equipment that can become a serious handicap. For example, Windows® can suffer in a workplace used by Mac®. Children's duck syndrome also contributes to very set habits in the area of using a computer, making people outbreaks the outbreak of the box, although the new system or software program can be more suitable for their needs.
One way to reduce baby duck syndrome is to explore several options at once. For example, people who are just starting to edit sound may want to try several sound adjustments programs so that they do not print on any particular version, which gives each program a chance.Other computer users simply suggest pushing to overcome the baby's duck syndrome, using unknown and new things for a longer period of time to see if they can overcome their initial sense of dislike.
