Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both studies by Muzafer Sherif and Solomon Asch showed that the group had a significant effect on individual judgment and behavioral conformity. In Sherif's study, participants' estimates of the movement of a fixed point of light were influenced by the estimates of other group members. In Asch's study, participants conformed to incorrect judgments of line length made by others in the group, even though they knew the correct answer. Thus, the correct answer is C - the group often has a significant effect on our individual judgment and behavioral conformity.
