Winner-loser Effects

Winner-Loser Effects is a psychological and behavioral phenomenon in animal and human social dynamics whereby an individual's prior victory or defeat in a competitive interaction systematically influences the outcome of subsequent encounters, increasing the likelihood of winning after a win or losing after a loss due to altered self-assessment, opponent perception, or social feedback mechanisms.
