Abstract
This paper states that manipulation is more effective when relations between members are based on trust and when they are emotionally involved. Based on the main hypotheses and objectives of the study, we try to emphasize the implications of manipulation in friendship relations, as well as its various influences on the self- image of young people. As the results pointed out, in a group of friends, the higher the interpersonal dependence, the more prone people will be to being manipulated; moreover, empathy and exaggerated emotional trust may lead to manipulation ‘victims’.
