'''Conformity''' is the [[process]] by which an [[individual]]'s [[attitudes]], [[beliefs]], and [[behaviors]] are [[influenced]] by other people. This influence occurs in both small [[groups]] and [[society]] as a [[whole]], and it may be the result of subtle [[unconscious]] influences, or direct and overt social pressure. Conformity also occurs by the "implied [[presence]]" of others, or when other people are not actually present. For example, people tend to follow the [[norms]] of society when eating or watching television, even when they are at [[home]] by themselves.

People often conform from a [[desire]] to achieve a sense of [[security]] within a [[group]]—typically a group that is of a similar age, [[culture]], [[religion]], or [[education]]al [[status]]. Any unwillingness to conform carries with it the very real risk of social rejection. In this respect, conformity can be seen as a safe means of avoiding bullying or deflecting [[criticism]] from [[peers]]. Conformity is often associated with adolescence and [[youth]] culture, but it affects [[humans]] of all ages.
