The effects of prior training to imitate or nonimitate on subsequent susceptibility to social influence
Tóm tắt
The effects of prior training to imitate or nonimitate on subsequent susceptibility to social influence were investigated. It was hypothesized that training Ss to imitate the responses of another individual would increase their susceptibility to social influence, while training Ss to nonimitate the responses of another individual would decrease such susceptibility. Results indicated that conformity behavior was inversely related to the level of task success attained by Ss during the imitation or nonimitation training phase of the experiment, but was not affected by the type of prior training (imitation or nonimitation) they received.
