Conformity (Needs Editing)

1. Types of Conformity

   • Identification
     • Conforming because we identify as part of a group
   • Compliance
     • "Going along with others", but not changing personal opinions and/or behaviours privately
   • Internalisation
     • Genuinely accepting group norms

2. Explanations for Conformity

   • Informative Social Influence (ISI)
     • We all agree with the opinion of the majority because we believe it to be correct and we want to be correct ourselves
   • Normative Social Influence (NSI)
     • We agree with the opinion of the majority because we want to be liked.
