The pratfall effect was a famous study in 1966 by social psychologist Elliot Aronson. People go
in for job interviews, and some of them did a perfect interview, and then some of them accidentally spilled a bit of coffee on themselves or dropped some papers. Guess who scored higher? If you guess the ones with a coffee stain you are correct. Thought being, these people seem to be more human and being more likable.
