The research is specifically about relationships, so this is the claim I make in the article.
Regarding winning friends and influencing people, open and honest communication is often not the best strategy to go. For the research on this, I’d suggest Cialdini’s Influence, it gets at many of the same issues as Carnegie but does so using research, and is thus quite a bit more worthwhile.
