The Pygmalion Effect is where an individualโs performance is influenced by othersโ expectations. In other words, higher expectations lead to higher performance. However, the Pygmalion effect specifically refers to how our expectations of others affect our behavior towards them. In turn, this can contribute to higher performance.
Our expectations can influence how we treat people, which can influence their own expectations of themselves.
Low expectations can mean we treat people differently to those with high expectations.
A self-fulfilling prophecy is created. Low expectations create a negative environment that creates low performance. Whilst high expectations create a positive and encouraging environment that creates high performance.
Could this mean that our expectations of ourselves or low expectations of ourselves is why we limit our effort. Why we don't truly become our Optimal Self?
