Types Of Conformity

  • Informational influence is when we are unsure of a correct response, and look to imitate others who we presume are better informed
  • Normative Influence is when we avoid a penalty or look for a reward by behaving in a certain way or agreeing to the rules of a group.
  • Identification conformity is when we behave in a certain way due to our social or professional identity.
  • Compliance conformity happens when we change our behaviour externally while internally disagreeing with our peers.
  • Internalization conformity is when we imitate a person because we want to be like them.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
