Answer:
The answer is B: Conformity
Explanation:
Conformity in simple terms is a change in attributes in other to "belong" or "fit in"
Conformity is a form of social influence. It usually involves changing belief or behaviour in order to fit in with a group. Most times, this change occurs to fit in with what's judged as popular or widely accepted.
In the example above, just because the most popular students tend to wear a particular brand of shoe, a new student seeing this, decides to buy a pair of shoes of the same brand. This clearly shows Conformity because:
1. The new student BOUGHT the shoes, meaning he didn't have them before.
2. It is because the most popular students tend to wear them.
He was trying to fit in. This is a perfect example of Conformity.
