Answer:

  • all people in the group agree
  • individual is in a group of three or more

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on Asch's line studies, the following factors increased conformity for any given individual:

  • all people in the group agree
  • individual is in a group of three or more

Individuals who were in a group where all the members agreed or where the group size was three or more were more likely to conform and give a wrong answer just to go along with the group.

The other two options, feeling secure and competent and admiring the group, were not identified as factors that increased conformity in Asch's line studies.
