Assignment: Humans are influenced by other people. The effects of being socialized in a socio-cultural environment are profound and pervasive. In this Discussion, while taking cultural variables into account, you are asked to consider how group processes may impact individual behavior. For instance, how you conform in your social behavior is influenced by culture and may impact your decisions and your behaviors in many aspects of your life at work, at home, and at play. For example, in some cultures people may adhere to adages such as "the squeaky wheel gets the oil" which emphasizes the role of independent action whereas in other cultures, the adage group members are expected to follow "the nail that sticks out gets pounded down" which emphasizes the value of group cohesion over independence.
