Abstract

Self-fulfilling prophecy effects have been a topic of investigation in psychological research since the 1940s. Traditionally, there were two types of self-fulfilling prophecies identified: self-imposed prophecies, which as the name suggests, occur when your own expectations influence your actions. Other-imposed prophecies occur when other people’s expectations influence your behaviour.
