From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Reverse psychology is a persuasion technique that involves the false advocacy of a belief or behavior contrary to the belief or behavior that is actually being advocated. This technique relies on the psychological phenomenon of reactance, in which a person has a (typically negative) emotional response in reaction to being persuaded, and thus chooses the option that is being advocated against.
Is reverse psychology effective?
Yes it is, if you avoided the two common pitfalls people fail to avoid which are 1) using it against the wrong person and 2) over using it.
Reverse psychology works best with narcissists, over confident people, people having exaggerated self worth and stubborn people. As for the first three, it works because those people think that they can do anything in the world and that’s why using such phrases ignites their fighting spirits making them wanting to prove you wrong.
Stubborn people on the other hand hate to be faced with one option but instead they like to see all the options available for them to choose from, when you tell them that the only option is that they will fail they will do their best to prove you wrong.
