Short YouTube clip (Vivian Weyll) describing a psychology ‘hack’: saying the word “because” when requesting small favors significantly increases compliance. The video summarizes a three-test study where requests phrased with “because” produced much higher agreement rates (tests involving cutting a line at a copy machine). The creator presents the findings as a practical tip for real-life interactions and invites viewers to follow for more business education.

Questions this video answers

Three tests.

60%.

94%.

93%.

Can I just go in front of you? Because my coat is orange. So I just thought, okay. Thank you so much. Would it be possible for me to cut in front of you? Because when the sun shines. Yeah. We shine together in the sunshine. Is it okay? Sorry. Thank you, guys.
Yep. This is actually a super sneaky psychology hack and you can steal it and use it in real life. They actually did a study with three tests. Test number one, someone asked to cut into a copy machine line by saying, excuse me, I only have five copies. Can I use the copy machine? 60% of the people said, yes. Test number two, someone said, excuse me, can I use the copy machine because I'm in a rush? And 94% of the people said yes and let them cut. Test number three, somebody said, excuse me, can I use the copy machine because I need to make copies? And 93% of the people said yes. Even if you have the dumbest freaking reason, if you say because on your sentence when you are asking for small favors, people are more likely to say yes. Follow for more business education.
