Abstract

The development of social psychology presents a complex situation, and behind many current social phenomena, there 
are shadows of basic sociological concepts and theories. This article is based on understanding the basic concepts of 
sociology, starting with research experiments on social conformity psychology by multiple sociologists. In response to 
existing social phenomena in life, it analyzes the underlying sociological principles: the main factors that affect social 
conformity and the possible consequences of conformity. And the cross-cultural research on the phenomenon of social 
conformity. This article better reveals the development causes of social conformity and the degree of conformity in 
different cultures, providing a theoretical basis for us to better understand certain social phenomena.
