Unit 9 – Social Psychology
Topic 9.7
According to economic theories, how does the principle of scarcity affect interpersonal attraction?
Scarcity makes people less attractive as it implies low social status.
The principle of scarcity only applies to physical resources and not relationships.
People are typically more attracted to individuals or relationships that are seen as rare or hard to obtain.
Scarcity has no effect on interpersonal attraction and is irrelevant in psychological studies.
