RE: To Vote Up or to Not Vote Up? Confronting Truth About Our Human Mind Behind Decision-Making on Steemit – A Behavioural Economics Approach

Your point #1:

"fishing methods used by other fishermen in the community"

Is a classic example of an persuasion factor that is discussed in the book Influence by Robert B. Cialdini.

I discuss this book as part of my persuasion series post.

@chrisadventures I appreciate your insight on the Game Theory payoff-matrix and it helps clarify what I have been thinking about my up vote behavior.

I'm happy to hear it's clarifying! I've checked your post about persuasion series! Looks interesting for sure. Group behaviour and do what is considered to be "correct", it's something we all do. Whether it's for the best... I don't know, but it definitely is behaviour we all seem to be repeating over and over, especially on Steemit!;-)
