Answer:

An example of a self-fulfilling prophecy is the placebo effect, when a person experiences beneficial outcomes because they expect an inactive "look-alike" substance or treatment to work, even though it has no known medical effect. ... Other-imposed prophecies occur when others' expectations influence your behavior.
