Paul spent Saturday picking up litter on a nearby beach with the biology club. At the end of a very long, hot day, one of the other members asked him to come with the group that evening to catch some invasive lizards as part of a science project.
 
  Paul hates lizards. Paul is more likely to agree to the second request now, after spending the day picking up litter, because of
   a. the door-in-the-face technique.
   b. informational social influence.
   c. the foot-in-the-door technique.
   d. idiosyncrasy credits.

Question 2

  c. idiosyncrasy credits.
