Hello Everyone,

Conformity within a group pertains to the adjusting your attitudes and beliefs to match those within the group of people you are hanging out with. Compliance is similar to conformity but has its differences. In order for it to occur within the group, one must adjust their actions to the other’s wishes or regulations (Constable et al. 2015). Obedience is when you change your behavior due to the commands of others in that group. Out of the three, obedience is the least common and only happens in certain kinds of relationships (Feldman, 2019).

The Asch effect, conducted by Solomon Asch during the 1950s, is the impact of the group majority on an individual’s judgment that is commonly seen in children (Open Stax College, 2014).
