Evidence-based friendship & social skills practices.
3 concepts in this area — each broken into concrete practices with the real mechanism, an honest read on the evidence, and how to practice it with IX Coach.
- Dunbar's Number — What is Dunbar's number and what does it mean for your friendships?
- The Propinquity Effect (Leon Festinger) — Why does physical and social proximity make people become friends?
- The Similarity-Attraction Effect (Donn Byrne) — Why are we attracted to people who are similar to us and what does that mean for friendship?
