KembaraXtra-Psychology – Behavioural Contagion
Behavioural contagion refers to the spread of behaviors, emotions, or actions through a group via observation and imitation. Examples include yawning, laughter, panic, and collective enthusiasm. This phenomenon demonstrates how individuals unconsciously synchronize with others, often through automatic mimicry and social influence processes. Behavioural contagion plays a significant role in crowd behavior, social movements, and online dynamics.
