Ever noticed that people seem more attractive when they’re in a group? It’s called the Cheerleader Effect. In this episode of Mind Theory, we explore the psychology behind this fascinating phenomenon, where our brains average out a group’s appearance, making each person appear more attractive than they would alone. We’ll unpack the science of perception and explain why this effect happens, challenging our assumptions about social attractiveness. Tune in for a fresh look at how we perceive beauty.
