In psychology, celebrity refers to the status and recognition that someone achieves by being well-known and famous. This concept is often studied in social psychology as it has an impact on people's behavior and attitudes. Celebrities are individuals who have gained widespread recognition and fame through various means such as acting, music, sports, or social media. They have a significant influence on their fans and followers, and their actions and behaviors are often imitated or emulated.
Celerity also known as swiftness. Beccaria argues that in order to be an effective deterrent, punishments must possess celerity. A punishment that occurs quickly after the crime helps to form a strong connection between the punishment and the crime in the minds of the general public, so that whenever a citizen contemplates a criminal act, he will instantly recall the punishment and weigh it into his deliberation. See also certainty and severity.
