In an age where the pressure is on to belong to a “tribe” and adhere to what it does and thinks, AUT radio student Olivia Gillard takes the Asch Conformity test to find out why we conform, and if it’s even bad that we do.
About the creator
20-year-old Liv has recently graduated from AUT with a Bachelor of Communications, majoring in Radio and minoring in Journalism.
She is currently in Taupo working at MediaWorks Radio as the Promotions Coordinator.
Between work and netflix, Liv enjoys a really good nap, but even more she enjoys pranking her fellow classmates which is how this documentary idea came to be.
Liv wanted to find out which of her classmates would crumble under peer influence and with the help of Professor Jay Wood, discovered why we do it and if it's actually a bad thing to lie under peer pressure.
