Book about social/psychological tricks e.g. Ben Franklin Effect, etc.
    #21899946 - 07/05/15 07:28 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Hi everybody!

May somebody of you know a good book..

I am searching for a book that explains social/psychological tricks or processes in humans..

Hard to explain; some examples i picked up and remembered, that almost always work:

E.g. the Ben Franklin Effect:
Quote:

The Ben Franklin effect is a proposed psychological phenomenon: A person who has done or completed a favor for someone is more likely to do another favor for that person than they would be if they had received a favor from that person. Similarly, one who harms another is more willing to harm them again than the victim is to retaliate.[1]


(Wikipedia)

Or if you give a present to somebody you automatically boost your relation to him/her..
(Works especially good with girls :P )

Don't get me wrong here, I am aware of this thing called Social Engineering, where you try to trick people, cheat them, get them to tell you secrets etc.

I don't want to exploit people,
i just really want to read a book about psychological reactions..

I think in the right moments you could use some techniques to achieve great goals,
e.g. making friends, building a close relation to somebody, etc.

There was a forum dedicated to this where I made the suggestion that people could come here to see these tricks in action. Perhaps someone will remember it and provide a link, it was educational.

You might like books by Dan Ariely.

I just took a look at Dan Ariely.. Looks like he wrote some interesting things..

I found a great webpage, for following interested shroomerites, check out this page:
http://changingminds.org/index.htm
7000 free pages on how the mind works.. cheers! (They also have made a book out of the webpage.. i really consider buying it soon)

There are also a lot of book recommendations, I just ordered one title at amazon which seems to hit exactly was I was searching for, and it is rated a very good book.

If you are interested:

The Composite Persuasion - Joel Marsh

Thanks, and for everybody feeling to add something to this topic, feel free!
