The Asch Conformity Experiments

Solomon Asch conducted an experiment to investigate the extent to which social pressure from a majority group could affect a person to conform.

Asch (1951) devised what is now regarded as a classic experiment in social psychology, whereby there was an obvious answer to a line judgment task.

If the participant gave an incorrect answer it would be clear that this was due to group pressure.
