Fads, Crazes
Are Analyzed
By Kattsoff
When a craze or a fad or, a
style sweeps the country these
things cannot be treated as social
forces, independent of people, ac
cording to Dr. Louis O. Kattsoff
of the Philosophy Department.
"The chief reason why a fad
takes hold is that it appeals to in
dividuals. Or it may appeal, not
directly, but through other mo
tives, such as the desire to mimic
celebrities to be considered up-to-the-minute,"
explains Dr. Kattsoff,
who expresses this and Other
views on human behavior in a
new book, "The Design of Human
Behavior", just published by the
Educational Publishers, Inc., St.
Louis, Mo.
"It is difficult to stop a fad, not
because the fad takes control of
individuals, but because of the
complex of motives in individuals
which causes them to accept that
particular fad," Dr. Kattsoff
writes. "In this sense, the ab
straction of 'social forces' can be
accepted. But in no other sense is
it a valid conception.
"The spread of new values, the
criticism of old ways of behaving,
might induce people to change
their values and hence their
modes of behavior, but the radio,
as an instrument for the propa
gation of ideas, released no new
forces in itself.
"It is only those who speak
through the radio and control the
means of communication who may
so direct the ideas of their listen
ers that they will tend to adopt
different values and hence change
their mode of behavior."
