Briefly outline three findings from Asch’s research into conformity. (Total 3 marks)

Model Answer:

Asch found that 36.8% of participants conformed on at least one critical trial, indicating a significant level of conformity. However, 25% of participants never conformed, demonstrating independence despite group pressure. In the control condition, only 1% gave incorrect answers, confirming that the task was unambiguous and that conformity was not due to difficulty in perceiving the lines.
