points Save A Recall that in his experiments, Muzafer Sherif (1936) placed participants in a dark room and asked them to estimate the movement of a dot of light projected on a screen. As discussed in the notes for Chapter 8, in a follow-up to h original study, Sherif added a "ringer" to the group. This person consistently gave much greater number estimates than the rest of the group. When Sherif did this, what happened to the estimates of the other group members? O a. the estimates of the other group members also increased. O b. the estimates of the other group members decreased, as they resisted the clear attempt at social influence. O c. the estimate of the other group members were not affected. O d. the estimates of the other group members became more accurate
