Thread: Name an psychological and sociological effect?

Im writing a scholarly journal on a psychological and sociological effect which my research has revealed, currently has no name.... Does one purpose a name for this? This is by no means my first article, however, it is the first time I am writing about something someone has not yet named....

So what does one do here? Do I propose a name in my thesis? I am not utterly certain that it doesn't have a name, since its a complex concept of which I do not know an existing name for, which makes it really, really hard to search for...

So ya.... any advice?

Please describe the disorder first. Then we can help you name it.

I dont need help coming up with a name for it, i just need to know the procedure for naming it in a scholarly article. IMO it would feel really smug to suggest a name in such a article, but then again what alternative is there...

If your research has revealed it, and it truly has not been previously described, then I'd say you discovered it, and you have naming rights.

Bunni Syndrome?

When in doubt, ask your advisor or a professor. They're going to be pretty familiar with the question you're asking.

You could put something in there something like "what I'll refer to as" type of statement.

Might want to ask a professor or advisor though to see if they can help out in any way.
