Prior research has shown that social exclusion increases people’s tendency to conform to others because doing so is expected to provide the opportunity for regaining social acceptance (DeWall, Maner, and Rouby 2009; Mead et al. 2011; Williams, Cheung, and Choi 2000). However, other studies document that social exclusion can lead to aggression and decreased helping, a behavior pattern seemingly the opposite of conformity (Baumeister et al. 2007; Twenge et al. 2001). These findings suggest that socially excluded individuals may engage in behaviors that deviate from conforming.
