The Hawthorne Effect is the inclination of people who are the subjects of an experimental study to change or improve the behavior being evaluated only because it is being studied and not because of changes in the experiment parameters or stimulus.

I think it’s more interesting to see who people become when no one’s watching.

[NeuralRetraining]

That’s interesting... it makes sense that we would alter our behavior when being observed. Sending health and wellness to everyone!

This is from the heart. If I'm going to be honest with you. In my own humble opinion without being biased or offending anyone, without being sentimental and by looking at the matter from a neutral distinct opinion. I would like to say that I have nothing to say...

Honestly learning this 20+years ago stuck with me and made me realize that so many political and managerial initiatives only appear to succeed because of the Hawthorne effect

Reminds me of the Panopticon: a hypothetical prison built in a circle where there is a guards spot in the middle. The guard can potentially see every cell but they can't see the guard.
The prisoners behave well since they never know if the guard is watching them at the moment or not.

The results of the Hawthorne studies enhanced our understanding of what motivates individuals in the workplace. They indicate that in addition to the personal economic needs emphasized in the classical era, social needs play an important role in influencing work-related attitudes and behaviors.👏

This channel is what got me into self improvement, and ultimately is what led me to create my own self improvement channel!

It's not that Clever Hans knew he was being tested or changed his natural behavior because he was being watched. It's that when asked a math question he simply tapped his hoof until the owner's expressions of anticipation turned to excitement, relief, and pride as Clever Hans reached the correct number in the math problem, and that's when Hans would stop tapping. I wouldn't say that this is an example of the Hawthorn effect. It's more just that animals can read non-verbal queues from humans, and Clever Hans was probably better at that than most other horses.
