Social Influence On Conformity And Women
Conformity is the most common and pervasive form of social influence, this study supports the idea that women conform more than men because women are prone to care more about the views that their peers perceive of them.I think the results supported the hypothesis because the males involved in the study for the majority part had answers that reflected that they did not care for fitting in, while on the other hand the majority of women admitted that they did care enough to want to fit in with their peers. Also when examining the results it is clear that for the most part women had a much greater need to fit in then the men.
One of the limitations I came across while running this study is the way it was measured because the data is self reported
