Favor Forged Bonds: The Franklin Effect

The Franklin Effect illustrates that doing favors for others can strengthen social bonds, contrary to common belief that favors create obligation. When one person lends a valuable item, such as a rare manuscript, they may subconsciously view the requester more favorably, perceiving them as trustworthy and worthwhile. This psychological phenomenon stems from the belief that sharing something precious with another reveals a bond, leading to mutual appreciation. Furthermore, when individuals disclose personal vulnerabilities, it can similarly foster trust and emotional connectivity, prompting reciprocal acts of kindness and deepening relationships.
