Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Normative influence occurs when people conform to the expectations or norms of a group to gain social acceptance, avoid rejection or disapproval, or gain a sense of belonging. In this scenario, holdout jurors may feel pressured to change their votes to align with the group consensus in order to avoid social rejection. This is different from informational influence, where people conform to the opinions or behaviors of others because they believe that the others have more accurate information. Open conflict and reactance influence are not applicable in this scenario.
