Answer:

The third-person effect/factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third-person effect is a prediction that occurs when a person thinks that the social media has a greater effect in influencing other people rather than himself. As the exercise details, this effect suggests that people underestimate the effect a persuasive message will have on them personally, while overestimating the effect it will have on others.
