Does anyone know of reputable psychological studies on the reaction to
the millenium? A colleague asked if I would address some students on the
psychological viewpoint of how people are reacting to the next change in
the date, to year 2000. A search of psych abstracts online yields
articles that talk about how specific areas are changing as they confront
the new millenium. This is not what I am looking for. Is there a
"millenium" phenomena that has been studied in a psychological,
systematic way?
Thanks,
