Abstract
- The study of conformity currently suffers from definitional ambiguity.
- Conformity and conformist transmission are distinct majority influences.
- These majority influences are defined in terms of individuals, not mere occurrences.
- The majority of individuals does not necessarily equal the majority of occurrences.
- Majority influence can only be identified with individuals' observation records.
