Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

This question asks us to identify which action would NOT raise the likelihood of someone becoming attracted to a coworker. 
Option 1: Chad disagrees with Jamal to demonstrate he lets people think for themselves. While openness to discussion is valuable, actively contradicting someone to demonstrate independence can create friction or signaling disagreement rather than fostering attraction, especially in a workplace context where harmony and similarity often help attraction grow. 
Option 2: Chad works in an office close to Jamal’s. Proximity is a well-documented factor in attraction; closer physical location increases opportunities for interaction and bonding, making it more likely Jamal feels drawn to Chad. 
Option 3: Chad being physically attractive. Physical attractiveness can influence initial liking due to (often automatic) judgments and the halo effect, which can boost attraction in social situations, including with coworkers. 
Option 4: Chad voices similar opinions to Jamal in casual conversation. Perceived similarity in values or opinions tends to increase liking because people feel understood and validated when ideas align, which strengthens attraction. 
In summary, the combination of closeness, physical appeal, and shared opinions all support greater attraction, whereas deliberately disagreeing just to showcase independence is the least supportive of building positive attraction in this context.
