What I Learned About Crowds. (Presentation March 10th, 2008.)


- People lose their sense of identity when in a crowd.
- People rely on others to take responsibility for their actions when in a crowd.
- Example in "Mean Girls" Katie was the outsider and then conformed when met "The Plastics."
- Crowds are influenced by the media.
- When people watch TV, they believe it's OK to inherit the actions seen.
- The power of reasoning in crowds prevents others to do what they really want.
- When in a crowd, actions are contagious.
- People inevitably conform to crowds when apart of one.
