Authors tested the hypothesis that our influence on others affects how much we are influenced by them. Findings suggested that participants reciprocated influence with their partner by gravitating toward the susceptible (but not insusceptible) partner's opinion. Further experiments revealed that reciprocity is both a dynamic process and is abolished when people believed that they interacted with a computer.
