This is sometimes the case, but certainly doesn’t need to be. In fact, hesitation is sometimes a wise balance to impulsivity. If you hesitate before jumping off a bridge or into a contract, that could be a fruitful interlude.
“Wheel of Fortune” viewers have been up in arms over a decision that was recently made. When a contestant hesitated for “four or five seconds” before correctly completing her response, she was told that the $32,000 Audi Q3 prize would not be hers.
On the one hand, you can’t have contestants gaming the system. If someone begins a response as a mere placeholder, that’s a problem. On the other hand, this contestant did not seem to be cheating – and – as disgruntled viewers pointed out: IT’S CHRISTMAS!
