Explanations of conformity By Michala, Harmeet and Jaspreet

Normative Social Influence (NSI) It is the result of wanting to be liked and be part of a group (by following social norms) NSI is related to compliance which means you behave like the majority without really accepting its point of view. Psychologists have called this type of conformity compliance. Another reason may be that you want to follow the crowd and need for companionship and fear of rejection.

Informational Social Influence (ISI) It is the result if wanting to be right-looking to others for the right answer. Internalisation: A person changing for its good This is most likely to occur when the situation is ambiguous. Another reason may be believing others be experts or knowing more than us.

Social Impact Theory Latane & Wolfe’s (1981) Number: the more people present, the more influence they will have on an individual. However, the rate of increase in impact grows less as each individual is added. Strength: the more important the people are to the individual, the more influence they have. Immediacy: each individual can influence others; but the more people that are present, the less influence any one individual will have.
