'''Psychological manipulation''' can be perceived as an attempt made by manipulative person (''manipulator'') beyond his/her competence to cause the other person's (''manipulated victim'') specific conduct in certain matter, according to own wishes of manipulator. From this point of view, the manipulation assumes therefore the definition of competencies, including its rigid boundaries. For the crossing of that boundary then unethical means are applied.

From this point of view, the manipulation assumes therefore the definition of competencies with rigid, infrangible boundaries. Then, for the undue crossing of that boundary, manipulation invokes the usage of unethical means.
