0 2 A psychologist did a study to find out more about conformity. box
She put participants into different sized groups.
She asked them to solve an easy maths problem. Then each person gave their
answer to the problem out loud. In every group, there was only one true participant.
The other people in the group were actors. The psychologist asked the actors to
purposely give a wrong answer. The true participant always answered last.
