"Copycat" refers to a person or entity that imitates the actions, ideas, or creations of another. This term is often used in various contexts, including art, business, and social behavior, where originality may be overshadowed by replication. The behavior can be seen as a form of flattery or, in some cases, a lack of creativity. In psychology, "copycat" behavior can also describe individuals who mimic the actions of others, particularly in response to social influences. This phenomenon is often observed in children and can extend to adults, especially in situations involving trends or popular culture, such as social media challenges or viral videos.
