The same logic could be applied other way around: "If one of her friends does not wear pink, she now has someone to copy from."
Not saying it is likelyhood. And I agree, that majority can influence minority, especially in youngster social circles.
- maxerickson 13y agoWell, in your example it would not be a potential explanation for her preference for pink. But peer influence is probably a likely explanation. For the second, part of what I was getting at was that there doesn't need to be a majority if she only really identifies with a few members. The members that she thinks of as her friends are likely to have much more influence over her than the overall group.
- alandarev 13y agoYah, totally agreed with you. I might have expressed it wrong. Using term 'majority', I meant the majority of friends around her.
