Reverse psychology refers to getting another person to do or
say something by telling them the opposite of what is desired. It's a form of
manipulation that has questionable success. Psychological reluctance occurs in
response to threats to perceived behavioral freedoms. A person has a negative
emotional reaction to being persuaded, and thus chooses the option which is
being advocated against. Reverse psychology implies a clever manipulation so,
this isn't the healthiest way to communicate. Use it wisely. However for people
who are resistant to change this is where it comes especially handy.
