Manage episode 325181586 series 3252932
A social experiment is a type of research done in fields like psychology or sociology to see how people behave in certain situations or how they respond to particular policies or programs. Many of these experiments test an individuals response to conformity. Society has made us believe the if you don't conform, you will be punished. Why do we have this fear of sticking out from the crowd? There's also the subject of con artists. They make us believe in a fantasy, whether it's the perfect relationship, an exclusive and immersive experience, or partying with the glitterati, we buy into what they're selling. We want to follow the crowd. It's the desperation to be a part of a group or to have the perfect life. So we conform.
