Key Concepts

Propinquity Effect

This key concept in social psychology refers to the tendency for people to form friendships and romantic relationships with those who are geographically close or readily accessible. Regular exposure and the convenience of interacting with nearby individuals typically increase comfort and familiarity, which in turn fosters relationship development.

Interpersonal Attraction

This concept involves the process by which individuals develop liking or friendship towards others, often influenced by frequency of interaction. When people are continuously in each other’s presence—such as living close by—they are more likely to become acquainted, share experiences, and ultimately form closer bonds.
