[diimtarsh1]

Can someone tell what is this experiment exactly and on what literature it is based? I mean is there somewhere where I can read about this experiment? 10x

[idiotnoobbum]

its about something called "sameness", and how it affects human behaviour. like the video shows, most humans will follow another group just because the majority is doing it, even though it is wrong.

@diimtarsh1 Its called the Asch Experiment

[diimtarsh1]

@philhunter2005 thanks

[philhunter2005]

@diimtarsh1 Only took 6 months for someone to reply. :) Its a behavioural experiment on conformity and group mentality. It is a very old experiment so im sure there are new studies done in this area.

@diimtarsh1 It's about a little thing called 'conformism'. Because of the group pressure, you adjust your behavour to match the behaviour of the group that's in your presense.

You can find solid information in the 'Organizational Behaviour' editions by Stephen Robbins.

@diimtarsh1 Excuse me, the term is called 'conformity'.

@diimtarsh1 look for the "line experiment" by Salomon Asch
