Learned HelplessnessHistoryLearned Helplessness is the term coined by the American M E P Seligman (1942- ) in the 1970's referring to the way in which an organism acts when exposed to unavoidable situations which are harmful, disdainful or painful. The effect is to prevent or retard learning in subsequent situations in which escape or avoidance is possible. It has been observed in humans and animals alike.
