What will be an ideal response
Give two reasons why it is important to be aware of the power of group influence. 1 point for any of the following:
- Everyone is susceptible; we need to be constantly aware of the attempt by others to manipulate us; the more we know, the more we are able to judge when it might be happening to us
- Groups can influence our behavior for better or worse; we need to be aware of possible group pressure so that we can take control of our own life
- This information will help me to stand up to social pressures, reduce discrimination, prejudice, and stereotyping, and contribute to more prosocial behavior
