Answer:Deindividuation

Step-by-step explanation:

What Is Deindividuation?

Usually we are sled aware and have a strong sense of individuality which makes us control ourselves effectively mostly when we interact with others.

Deindividuation occurs when we lose that sense of individuality because we are in a crowd hence we become less self aware and we stop thinking critically. When we are surrounded by the crowd especially of the people we don't know we feel less responsibility cause we can act anonymously.

It occurs mostly in sport games, political events and any other large group of people.
