\u201cIf people like you, they\u2019ll listen to you, but if they trust you, they\u2019ll do business with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/em>\u2013 Zig Ziglar<\/p>\n

Although this isn\u2019t a business-related article, Zig\u2019s quote testifies to the power of trust.\u00a0Any relationship \u2013 personal and professional \u2013 depends on mutual trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Human psychology has a lot to do with it. Behavioral and cognitive scientists have studied the trust\/behavior phenomenon for a long time. Again and again, researchers and scientists conclude that one\u2019s willingness to trust another is strongly influenced by what the other person says and does.<\/p>\n

In this article, we\u2019ll take a look at five such behaviors \u2013 all of which are backed by scientific evidence. Genuine displays of these behaviors can help you gain the trust of friends, co-workers, and even strangers.<\/p>\n

5 Ways To Get People To Trust You<\/h2>\n

1. Having a pleasant smell<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Ok, we all know that being smelly isn\u2019t conducive to earning someone\u2019s trust. On the other hand, our olfactory nerve (which affects smell)\u00a0does<\/em>\u00a0influence trust to some degree.<\/p>\n

The Trust Game (aka, \u201cthe investment<\/a> game\u201d) was developed by University of Arizona professor Joyce Berg to measure interpersonal trust. Dutch researchers wanted to test whether or not certain scents would influence trust.<\/p>\n

90 participants were split into three groups; one group was exposed to no smell, the second group to peppermint, and the third to lavender.\u00a0People within the lavender-smelling group were \u201csignificantly more willing\u201d to entrust money to someone else than participants in other groups.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Researchers explained this phenomenon in simple terms: lavender has a calming effect. Apparently, this calming effect may invoke feelings of trust in others.<\/p>\n

2. Mirroring body language<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One group of MBA students were asked to mimic their colleagues in a business transaction negotiation subtly. Another group was used as a control, and were advised not to mirror. None of their colleagues knew of the experiment.<\/p>\n

The simple act of resting an elbow on the table when their partner did had a drastic effect on the outcome.<\/p>\n

A negotiation was reached\u00a067 percent\u00a0<\/strong>within the mirroring group, and just\u00a012 percent\u00a0<\/strong>in the control group. Researchers have previously shown that we mirror those we admire; adding another interesting dimension to interpersonal relationships.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
