Klevens, J. (1978). Proximity-induced attraction: A review of the literature. Journal of Social Psychology, 105(1), 31-43.

The "lust epidemic" in elevators has implications for individuals and society. For individuals, it can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and anxiety, as well as difficulties in navigating relationships and intimacy. For society, it can contribute to a culture of objectification and exploitation, where people are reduced to objects of desire rather than being treated as equals. lust epidemic elevator
