Rumors are a common occurrence in society that spread through word of mouth and can affect people in various contexts such as work, school, and markets. Rumors start for many reasons, including to reduce anxiety about uncertain situations or increase social status, and are often believed because people want to understand what is happening. Once begun, rumors can have lasting effects as efforts to verify them sometimes only spread the rumors further while people persist in their initial opinions.
