AP Psychology
Unit 9 – Social Psychology
Topic 9.4
What would be a compelling critique of Solomon Asch’s conformity experiments from an evolutionary psychology viewpoint?
Human beings are naturally non-conforming creatures.
Conformity is solely driven by fear of social rejection or punishment.
Asch's studies lack ecological validity and can't represent real-life situations.
Conformity could serve survival purposes instead of merely being social pressure-driven response.
