Understand that social psychology studies how individuals' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are influenced by the actual or imagined presence of others.
Recognize that harassment behavior in a school setting can often be explained by social influence processes, such as conformity, obedience, and social norms.
Identify that a strong belief in individualism typically reduces the likelihood of conforming to group behaviors, so it is less likely to explain harassment motivated by social factors.
Consider that a lack of social influence or pressure would not typically lead to harassment motivated by group dynamics, since social psychology emphasizes the role of social context.
Conclude that the desire to conform to group norms and gain social approval is a common reason for harassment, as individuals may engage in such behavior to fit in or be accepted by their peer group.
