The Theory of Approval


I have a theory I want to test out.  It's called the Theory of Approval.  I've tested this for a long time and I believe that we crave certain mechanisms that portray approval or completion.  For instance, when I download a large game I sit there and wait, sometimes for hours just to see it complete to 100%. It's something subconscious about that final confirmation that just completed the deal so to speak.  Same thing with when I'm cleaning computers of viruses, malware, etc.  I enjoy watching the software do its work as it shows me the details, percentages, and approvals that the computer is clean and ready to go. 
Maybe it's just me but I think I'm not alone in this.  What are your thoughts?
