John favours the death penalty. In discussing this issue with some like-minded classmates, he hears arguments for this position that he’d never considered before. After the discussion, his opinion is more extreme. In this example, the outcome is best explained by :
a normative influence processes.
b. informational influence processes.
c. reactance theory.
d. social comparison theory.
Pretty sure its informational influence processes (B), because his opinion is more extreme due to the new information that was gathered. His opinion is reinforced to a specific side.... in this case, what he already believed.
