“Bandwagon effect” = hiệu ứng đoàn xe -> nghĩa là hiện tượng tâm lý mọi người “bắt chước” làm điều gì vì những người khác đang làm điều đó, bất kể niềm tin của họ ra sao; 'tâm lý bầy đàn'.

Ví dụ
I’ve long believed the problem has not been vaccine supply so much as an aversion(ác cảm) to the vaccine, which mirrors the aversion to masks in Arkansas. Governor Hutchinson shouldn’t have waited so long to open vaccinations to all. A bigger rush might have had a bandwagon effect, for one thing. But it also meant denying shots to people who REALLY wanted them. Who of them got sick? Or worse?

Consider the bandwagon effect: Half of Americans is a large proportion (tỷ lệ), but it may not be enough for a bandwagon. How decision makers define the “majority” also matters. Sometimes, we care what others in the country are doing; at times we care more about what people in our social networks or communities are doing. In minority communities or among Republicans, where hesitancy (sự do dự) rates are higher, the bandwagon may not have yet emerged. 

Lord Macdonald spoke after the national police spokesman on child protection, Simon Bailey, predicted that ‘rape culture’ claims would engulf (dìm xuống) the entire education sector. So far, more than 100 schools have been named in more than 8,000 anonymous testimonies (lời khai) on the Everyone’s Invited website. Is Lord Macdonald right to suggest that there is a danger of a bandwagon effect and to warn against social media campaigns ‘that may draw in all sorts of behaviour that is obnoxious and unpleasant but not criminal’?
