“‘Foot-in-the-door’ is a well-known compliance technique which increases compliance to a request. Many investigations with this paradigm have generally used prosocial requests to test its effect. Evaluation of the effect of foot-in-the-door was carried out with a courtship request. 360 young women were solicited in the street to accept having a drink with a young male confederate. In the foot-in-the-door condition, before being solicited to have a drink, the young woman was asked to give directions to the confederate or to give him a light for his cigarette.<\/span> Analysis showed foot-in-the-door was associated with greater compliance to the second request.”<\/p> Door-in-the-face technique and monetary solicitation: an evaluation in a field setting.<\/p> “To test the door-in-the-face technique for a private solicitation, 53 men and 37 women in several bars were engaged. In one condition, a female confederate asked the subject to buy her drink because her boyfriend had left without paying the bill. After the subject refused, the confederate requested only 2 or 3 coins. In the control condition, the latter request was the only one. Analysis showed a dramatic increase in compliance for the door-in-the-face condition. A positive effect of the door-in-the-face technique was also observed for the average amount of the donation. The accentuation of the solicitor’s dependency in the door-in-the-face condition seemed relevant for explanation.”<\/p> Thanks to John for today’s ROFL!<\/em><\/p> Photo: flickr\/AndrewEick<\/a><\/em><\/p> Related content: Foot-in-the-door technique using a courtship request: a field experiment.“‘Foot-in-the-door’ is a well-known compliance technique which increases compliance to a request.
