[> page 153 VOCABULARYBANKTHE PEOPLE WATCHERS
If you wanted to persuade someone
to dress up as a tree in public, what
would you do? If you wanted to raise
money for charity on the streets,
who would you ask to help you?
‘What would you do if you wanted
to sell cakes and nobody was buying
them? What would you do if you
needed to think creatively but didn’t
have any ideas?
‘One thing you could do is watch a
programme from the BBC series
The People Watchers. The programme
asks the question ‘Why do we do what
‘we do?” Through twenty episodes, Professor
Richard Wiseman, two psychologists and
‘a neuroscientist do experiments
involving members of the public, secretly
filming them with a hidden camera. The
experiments show why we behave the
way we do in everyday situations. If you
‘wanted to know how to get a seat on a
‘crowded train, stop people from jumping
queues, get someone to do you 2 favour,
‘work out if someone is lying, and get a
complete stranger to lend you a mobile
phone, you could find out by watching,
In one experiment, two of Wiseman’s
psychologists pretended to be cake-sellers,
They stood at a stall on the street and
tried to sell cakes for a pound each. No
one bought any. So they did what shops
do: they held a sale. But it wasn’t a real
sale. They pretended that one cake cost
two pounds, and if you bought a cake,
you would get another one free. People
started buying! Later they told people
that the cakes usually cost two pounds
but they were doing a special deal and
selling them for just one pound. Again,
people bought the cakes. It seems that
‘everyone loves the idea of a bargain even.
if they aren’t really getting one.

‘Another experiment looked at
‘experts’ who aren't. Emma, a psychologist,
pretended to be a hairdresser. While
‘cutting’ three people's air, she talked like
a hairdresser, saying all the right things,
and dropped a few bits of fake hair. The
‘three volunteers later said they were very
happy with their haircuts, In reality, Emma
hhadn't cut any hair, Richard Wiseman’s
conclusion? People would do better if they
didn't always listen to ‘experts’, Instead,
they should trust their own eyes
In another experiment, Jack,
psychologist, had to persuade ordinary
people to dress up as a tree. The trick was
to ‘start small’ First, Jack asked a man
to wear a badge; then he asked him to
wear a cap; and finally the tree suit,
This, Wiseman says, is called ‘The foot
in the door technique’: if you want a big
favour from someone, first ask for a
small favour!
