The norm in your large psychology class is that students will remain quiet enough for others to hear the professor and one another during lectures and discussions.
When you talk loudly to the person next to you and violate the norm, like the deviant in Stanley Schachter's Johnny Rocco study, you can expect that your classmates will first
a. ignore you.
b. talk to you, hoping to change your behavior.
c. punish you by not working with you on the class project.
d. tell you to sit someplace else during the next class meeting.
Question 2
Imagine that you are on the Olympics Planning Committee. Nine out of 10 of the committee members hold the same opinions. However, one member, Laura, consistently deviates from the group's opinion.
How is your group most likely to act toward Laura to bring her in line with the group's opinion? The group will
a. first increase communication with Laura. When that doesn't work, the group will ignore and punish Laura.
b. immediately punish Laura to force her to change her opinion.
c. ignore Laura and refuse to communicate with her. If this tactic fails, the group will punish Laura.
d. nominate Laura to be the chair of the committee.
