Peak–end rule end. The effects of the duration of an experience upon retrospective evaluation are extremely slight. Fredrickson and Kahneman labeled this phenomenon "duration neglect". The peak–end rule is applicable only when an experience has definite beginning and end periods.

Participants were subjected to two different versions of a single unpleasant experience. The first trial had subjects submerge a hand in 14 °C water for 60 seconds. The second trial had subjects
Two-third rule than freight trains. On such tracks, the two-third rule applies to freight trains. The two-third rule means that the speed limit for a freight train is generally about two-thirds of the speed limit for an EMU. For example, the Dartford Loop Line has a speed limit of 60 mph for EMUs between Lee and Crayford. A freight train on this track is therefore limited to two-thirds of 60 mph, i.e. 40 mph.
