the
mechanism (a system or means for doing something; especially, a physical or mental
process, whether
conscious or
unconscious, by which some result is produced, e.g., a defense
mechanism) wherein a person commits an
overt, then believes he's
got to have a
motivator or that he has had a
motivator. For instance, if he hits somebody he will tell you immediately that he has been
hit by the person, even when he has not been.
See also motivator and overt in this glossary. But to get on this kick that he was the only one who could invade that particular sphere and spatial area, and that you mustn't, of course wound you up in the mechanics of mechanical communication and started you straight into the overt act-motivator mechanism.
