The objective of this commentary is to critically evaluate the article by Tomasz Witkowski and Pawel Fortuna. While I recognize the importance of some issues raised by the authors I point, however, to irregularities in coming to conclusions and to existing – in my opinion – defects in their process of seeking evidence.

W artykule podjęta została próba zweryfikowania, czy efekt kameleona może być skuteczną metodą zmiany stereotypów. Dotychczas wykazano, że naśladownictwo zachowań niewerbalnych prowadzi do wzrostu pozytywnego nastawienia, zwiększa chęć niesienia pomocy nie tylko naśladowcy, ale i innym ludziom, jest skutecznym narzędziem wpływu społecznego, a osoby koordynujące swe zachowania zaczynają w konsekwencji działać kooperacyjnie. W prezentowanym badaniu, prowadzonym w warunkach naturalnych, podjęto pilotażową próbę zastosowania efektu kameleona w zmianie stereotypu na bardziej pozytywny: percepcji (przez osoby deklarujące się jako wierzące) osób niewierzących. Uzyskane wyniki świadczą o tym, że choć mimikra pozytywnie wpływa na poprawę percepcji stereotypizowanej grupy, to obszar zmiany jest fragmentaryczny. Oznacza to, że - z pewnymi zastrzeżeniami - mechanizm ten może być skutecznie stosowany w obszarze zmiany stereotypów i uprzedzeń. Z tej racji, iż jest to jedno z pierwszych badań w tym obszarze, konieczne są dalsze prace wskazujące zakres stosowalności i ograniczenia, które omówiono w końcowej części artykułu.

The study aimed to verify whether the chameleon effect can be a used as an effective technique of stereotype modification. It has already been shown that individuals whose behaviors were mimicked showed an increased positive disposition as well as readiness to help not only the mimicker but also other people - and, in general, this seems to be an effective tool of social influence. Persons who adjust their behaviors start to act cooperatively. The pilot study presented here, run as a natural experiment, aimed to employ the chameleon effect in order to modify the stereotype of nonbelievers as perceived by participants declaring themselves to be believers. The results showed that even though mimicry positively influenced the perception of the stereotyped group, the scope of the modification was somewhat patchy. This means that the mechanism can be effectively applied as a means for the modification of stereotypes and prejudices within certain limits. Since this is one of the first studies venturing to explore this area, further work is necessary to delineate the abovementioned limits and the applicability of the measures that we discuss in the final part of this paper.

The Chameleon as a Leech: The Costs of Mimicry for the Mimickee

Mimicry is known to produce benefits for the mimicker such as liking, increased prosocial tendencies (e.g., higher donations), and trust. Little is known about the benefits or costs to the mimickee. The aim of this study is to explore this issue. Participants were mimicked or not by a confederate. The confederate then dropped pens and checked if the participants picked them up (a proxy for prosocial behavior). Finally, questionnaires were administered that assessed each participant’s liking of the confederate and self-liking, and self-esteem. As expected, mimicked participants picked up more pens and liked the mimicker more. Surprisingly, mimicked participants reported significantly lower self-like when compared to non-mimicked participants, and their self-esteem tended towards being lower. This research fills an important theoretical gap showing that there is a great cost to mimicry.
