Answer to Question 1

B
Explanation: B) As the person who first offers a favor to another, you are able to influence them to reciprocate your action, even if it requires more of their time and effort. It is in your best interest to offer favors to others because you may end up repaying their favors with more effort if you receive them first.

A
Explanation: A) Social proof is a persuasive tactic that works in two main ways; either people gain comfort from going with the crowd or they don't want to or don't care to make the decision. Looking to others to influence your behavior is how social proof is a persuasive tactic.
