Document Summary
The need to confer can a ect our behaviour in all sorts of di erent ways. Changing your response because of pressure from others in a non-ambiguous situation: compliance. Gathering information to learn the correct response in a ambiguous situation: internalization. Placed yers on peoples windshield which was completely clean or lled with litter. Are people more or less likely to litter based on the how clean the parking lot. Expt 1: littering in a messy vs. clean parking lot. Expt 2: e ect of a confederate"s behaviour (no behaviour control vs. c picks up litter) on littering. Results: people are more likely to throw the yer when the parking lot is messy and least likely when its clean. And even more lower chances when they see a confederate picking up the trash. Iv: confederate"s behaviour: baseline vs. confederate who doesn"t jaywalk vs. jaywalks. Baseline measure is results by observing participants. Dv: % of trails in which jaywalking occurred.
