Question:

Explain the shallowest type of conformity.

Author: Maz Kanu



Answer:

Compliance - Individuals go along with the group to gain approval/avoid disapproval. When exposed to the views/action of the majority, individuals engage in social comparison, concentrating on what others do or say and adjust themselves to fit in. Fitting in is seen as desirable and so motivates conformity.
