in a study of conformity, asch found that if just one confederate went against the other group of confederates who were proposing the wrong answer, then the naive subjects in the experiment were: group of answer choices still just as likely to conform as when the entire group of confederates responded unanimously now less likely to conform than when the confederates were unanimous -- even if the answer being proposed by the dissenting confederate was also wrong now less likely to conform than when the confederates were unanimous -- but only if the answer being proposed by the dissenting confederate was the correct one actually more likely to conform than when the confederates were unanimous
