Description:
I'm looking for an *extensive* list of psychology studies that illustrate psychology factors that affect human interactions.

I'm a professional dating advice columnist for men and women and I've always wanted to have a reference guide of relevant studies that I can point to when illustrating human nature in attraction, relationships, persuasion, influence, likability, etc.

I want a definitive digest of all of the psychology concepts relevant to (but not limited to):

- human romantic / sexual attraction
- marketing
- advertising
- sales
- persuasion
- politics
- "brainwashing"

Examples of the types of studies I'd expect in this report would include:

- Mere exposure effect
- Body Language studies
- Cognitive dissonance
- Confirmation Bias

There are hundreds of these concepts and studies - I need a savvy psychology lover to create an easy to read reference guide for every concept and relevant study that you can think of.

I'm accessible, encouraging and easy to work with - if you need my input with the project, I'm happy to help. I have a BA in Psychology, so I know more than the average person, but I just don't have the time to do this project myself.

I would like a list of 100 distinct concepts - if you can do more, even better and I'd be glad to tip you for it.

Doesn't need to be a crazy amount of text - just the necessary info. I would like each section to include:

- name of the concept
- what the concept is, in layman's terms
- "tags" for the study - so if it was mere exposure effect, you might include tags like "likability, advertising, acceptance" to tag the situations where the concept is at play and relevant
- a reference to the study, the researcher(s), a summary of the experiment and the findings
- a citation for the study

For someone who's passionate and knowledgeable of psychology, this will be an easy and fun assignment.

I'd like this report done in a week and we can establish milestones. Please apply with examples of similar work and any credentials that show you're qualified and knowledgeable of psychology.
