Two psychology students were having a conversation about the lesson they had just had. Aneeta: “I found the results of Asch’s study really surprising. I don’t believe that I would have conformed in that situation". Myla: "I was surprised too – but I wonder if it had something to do with them being in a situation that wasn’t like their everyday life?" Aneeta: "That’s true – the task was also not like anything I have ever been asked to do before.” |
