Answer:

normative influence

Step-by-step explanation:

Normative influence -

It is one of the human behavior , where the person , atlers his or her thoughts and behaviour , randomly just by looking or observing it on some other person , is known as Normative influence .

It is a very dominant type of influence , where the person unknowingly copies or replicate the same task .

Normative influence , can also be in the form of thoughts , as the person too get influenced and other peoples thought and replicate them to their life .

Hence , Hammond did the same thing by replicating the stretching exercise done by his colleages .
