Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conformity refers to the tendency of individuals to conform to prevailing norms or attitudes within a group. This can be due to both real, overt pressure from others, or imagined or perceived pressure based on social norms or expectations. Co-operation and obedience refer to more intentional or deliberate actions, while coercion refers to the use of force or threats to influence behavior, which is not the same as conformity.
