Conformity refers to the tendency of individuals to adjust their thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and

behaviors to align with those of a larger group or societal norms. It involves yielding to social pressure,
whether explicit or implicit, in order to fit in or be accepted by others. Conformity can occur in various
contexts, including social settings, organizations, and cultural groups. It can manifest in behaviors such as
adopting fashion trends, conforming to group norms, or adhering to societal expectations. Conformity
plays a significant role in shaping social cohesion, group dynamics, and cultural norms, but it can also
lead to the suppression of individuality and critical thinking.
