Another way of understanding group conformity is to think about reference groups.

理解群体从众的另一种方法是考虑参考群体。

We learned about leadership, group conformity, reference groups, and the impacts of group size.

我们了解了领导力、团队整合、参考群体以及团队规模的影响。

Reference groups are groups we use as standards to judge ourselves and others.

参考群体是我们用作判断自己和他人的标准的群体。

What’s " normal" for you is determined partly by your reference groups.

对您来说什么是“正常”部分取决于您的参考群体。

In-groups are reference groups that you feel loyalty to, and that you identify with.

内群体是您感到忠诚并认同的参考群体。

And so we were interested in finding out how much people actually know about how they rank relative to others, and we're interested in various, what you may call, reference groups.

所以我们很想知道人们对于自己与他人的排名知道多少，我们对各种各样的，你可以称之为参照组的东西很感兴趣。

If you just looked at society as a bunch of individuals, you’d miss all the ways that groups impact our lives – by acting as reference groups, by influencing our decisions through group conformity, and much more.

如果你只是把社会看作一群人，你会错过群体影响我们生活的所有方式——作为参照群体，通过群体整合影响我们的决定，等等。
