Vaikutusperiaatteet, or principles of influence, refer to the underlying rules that govern how individuals and groups affect each other's attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. These principles are used across psychology, marketing, negotiation, and political communication to predict or guide persuasive efforts. The most widely cited framework originates from Robert B. Cialdini’s 1984 work, “Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion.” Cialdini identified six core principles: reciprocity, commitment and consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity. Each principle describes a cognitive bias that can be leveraged to increase compliance. Reciprocity suggests that people are more likely to comply when they feel they owe something in return. Commitment and consistency emphasize the human tendency to act in ways consistent with prior commitments. Social proof relies on people emulating others, especially in uncertain situations. Liking notes that individuals are more easily persuaded by those they find attractive or similar. Authority refers to the influence of perceived expertise or status. Scarcity highlights how perceived limited availability enhances desire.
In practice, social and organizational contexts apply these principles in tailored ways. For instance, fundraising campaigns
