00:08

passage 2 mostly likely respond to question in Passage 1 about whether conformity expectation

00:12

we'd say is the more complex situations those aligned 3 4 3 2

00:16

let's go back the last paragraph there in a passage one and kind of skim it so

00:20

that we're thinking aloud here it's just a bunch of lines what is that oh there

00:25

we go these actually all times with things muller-lyer illusion that causes

00:27

00:29

that's about so then we got to go back here and then

find passage one can for me exist more complex rights and we got to go to line

00:36

01:09

procedure beforehand since they were given instructions but that didn't [writing on chalkboard]

01:13

prevent conformity they'll get rid of see since passage to only cites two

01:17

experiments while it wouldn't make sense to apply the claim to every experiment [documents on table]

01:21

ever in the history of social science in and there's just not enough evidence to [scientists discussing]

01:26

safely make that generalization so we're gonna go with a conformity does occur
