Answer: because of group pressure, most people are willing to say things they know are not true.
Explanation: Conformity in psychology refers to the tendency of individuals in a social group to follow behaviors or unspoken rules of the group. Solomon Asch conducted a series of psychological experiments in the 1950s to demonstrate the power of conformity in groups which revealed the degree to which a person's own opinions are influenced by those of other members of the group. In this, it was found that because of group pressure, most people are willing to say things they know are untrue, to ignore reality in order to conform or fit in to the rest of the group.
