Tencent Digital (Ren Yanmei) Everyone has some bad habits to correct, but the reality is usually very difficult, because humans are themselves very difficult to self regulate the animals, such as you want to go to bed earlier and reduce the number of landing social networking sites and many more. In this case, a wearable device named "Pavlok" appears in the market, and its role is to force users to get rid of their bad habits by appropriate electric shocks (50 to 500 volts).
Obviously, there is no lack of electric shock aversion therapy in medicine, indicating that electric shock is a viable solution. However, Pavlok is a consumer electronic device after all. Can it really change people's bad habits through electric shock or is it just a gimmick? Wareable editor Becca Caddy decides to experience it for himself and see if it can get rid of the bad habit of biting a finger when he is nervous and take a look at the whole process.
Science behind Pavlok
At first glance, Pavlok is a bit like a gimmick. There are no real medical specialists on the team, and their advocacy lists bad habits that can be quit, including stopping teething, scratching the skin, and even drug dependence. Obviously, it is not a true medical grade device, but Maneesh Sethi, Pavlok's designer, said that human beings are animals based on conditioned reflexes. Therefore, certain regular electric shocks can urge people to get rid of some bad habits.
Shock experiment begins
For the first time using Pavlok, what you need to choose is to get feedback in the form of electric shock or vibration. After that, you need to set the current intensity. Becca Caddy thinks that 100% intensity is too high, and 50% is more appropriate. It reminds oneself but it doesn't make you scream.
Through the smart phone application, Pavlok can be set to operate, which actually takes some time. First of all, you need to set goals. For example, Becca Caddy sets the specific time based on the frequency of his nail biting. Pavlok will give a sound or vibration reminder a few minutes before the preset time, if you complete the goal. And verify it, it will not shock you.
Becca Caddy deliberately shocked herself in the first few days in hopes of forming a habit and found that she had bitten nails at least six times in two days. The time period was basically the same. On the third day, when the scheduled time came and she began to bite her nails, she subconsciously recalled the shock and she stopped in time. After five days, she had developed a strong sense of disgust toward biting her nails. After she took off Pavlok, her biting of her nails was reduced by 80% compared with that before, indicating that Pavlok still has a certain role.
Get rid of more bad habits
In addition to self-disciplined verification or active aversion therapy, Pavlok can also intelligently change some of your bad habits. For example, it has a Chrome browser extension that allows you to set which websites are forbidden to log in. Once you can't help but log in, the bracelet will start electric shocks. This experience is more intelligent and convenient.
In general, Pavlok is a magical wearable device with a certain role, at least not yet present in the market. It also proves that it is feasible to influence human behavior through appropriate and safe electric shocks. Of course, Pavlok's user groups are those who want to live a better, more active life, and "sleepers" actually do not buy it.
