💨 Abstract

The article discusses the concept of 'boomerasking', a term coined by researchers to describe a behavior where someone asks a question to initiate a conversation, but then quickly steers the conversation back to themselves. Examples of boomerasking include ask-bragging, ask-complaining, and ask-sharing. Researchers found that while boomeraskers believe they leave a positive impression, others perceive them as insincere and self-centered.
