Pygmalion effect in psychology




The Pygmalion Effect is the effect of expectations on the performance of others, which becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy when the people internalize the expectations placed upon them.

This is also known as the Rosenthal effect.

See the discussion in  Self-Fulfilling Prophecy  for more information and references.
