Abstract

The purpose of this study is: (1) to develop a psychological scale of intervals of pedestrian behavior in response to a stop light; (2) to observe and record on this scale the behavior of pedestrians in differentconformity situations where the strength of the conformity-producing forces supposedly varies (e.g. the presence or absence of a policeman); and (3) to plot the observations of these situations and compare them to determine whether the curve is recognizably different in the different situations.
