I wouldn’t recommend manipulating anybody, as the act itself is unethical. But I would recommend learning these tricks to stay aware of what is going on inside other people and behind their image.
- The Zeigarnik Effect (named after the psychologist Bluma Zeigarnik): This phenomenon suggests that people remember uncompleted or interrupted tasks better than completed ones. To use this, if you want to ensure someone remembers something, start discussing it and then intentionally leave it incomplete.
- The Benjamin Franklin Effect (Named after the eponym of effect: Benjamin Franklyn) : This effect suggests that people are more likely to like you after they've done a favor for you. So, asking someone for a small favor can actually make them feel more positive about you. (Maybe even trust you).
- The Illusory Truth Effect: The more you hear something, the more likely you are to believe it's true, even if it's false. Be cautious about repeating false information, and fact-check before sharing because this is how gossip negatively influences our brains and functions.
- The Pygmalion Effect (Named after a Greek Myth): This is the idea that higher expectations lead to an increase in performance. If you have high expectations for yourself or others, it can lead to better outcomes. Of course, there are exceptions, where people would feel pressured when high expectations are placed on them, like a stone on their shoulders. But it is a valuable tip for your professional teammates or family members.
- The Power of Visualization: Visualizing success can boost your confidence and performance in various situations.
So That!
