Children and parents are given tasks to see who conforms and who is comfortable standing out, even when personal convictions are under pressure. Subjects watch film clips of older children and are asked to copy them; clips of party scenes are also shown, eliciting opinions about what it would be like to attend. Finally, a Q & A game challenges kids to speak their minds when presented with obviously wrong answers."@en
  • ""We all like to think we are individuals, but some of us enjoy standing out from the crowd more than others. As children throw themselves into the world outside home, they are exposed to experiences that confirm or call into question their family's values, behaviour and expectations. Fitting in can be a useful strategy, but there are problems with too much conformity. Standing alone, on the other hand, can make people vulnerable. We set our children and their parents tasks to see which of them want to fit in and who are comfortable standing out and have the courage of their convictions when under pressure"--Container."
