Deciding what to watch on TV is a battle of wills that is fought in homes all over the world. According to psychologists （心理學(xué)家）, it is much more serious than simply deciding between a soap opera and a sports program, or between pop music and politics. This television conflict is part of a bigger power game which goes on in homes, even though most of the players do not realize that they are playing a game at all. “It’s such a game as is not easy to notice,” says psychologist Dr. David Lewis, “that many people don’t even know they’re playing it.”

Unconsciously, people begin to play the game as soon as they meet their future husband and wife. By the time toe couple get married, the rules of game are already formed. The big decision, like where to live and which school to send the children to, are usually joint decision. When it comes to less important things, it’s a different matter. Here is just one example of this process at work. A husband looks through a pile of holiday brochures （小冊子） and announces his preference: “The South of France.” And his wife quickly agrees before he realizes that the only brochures she gave him were those for the South of France. Similarly, she may decide on how the home should be decorated, but he chooses the new car and decides what the family does at weekends.

“Family power struggles are interesting,” says Dr. Lewis. “Of course, some people are naturally more dominant （占統(tǒng)治地位） than others, and the most dominant personality in a family tries to lead. These days, even though some many couples make a special effort to have a true and equal partnership, men generally have a greater need to appear to be in physical control. Women, on the other hand, are not so interested in physical control as in emotional control. On the whole, they’re more controlling and can make the man think of something as his idea in the first place.”
