Believing that others are right is to ________ as conforming without believing is to ________. public compliance; private accept
bija089 [108]

Believing that others are right is to private acceptance and as conforming without believing is to public compliance. Public compliance involves a change in behavior including the public expression of opinions that is not accompanied by an actual change in one’s private opinion. Thus, compliance represents what people do or say in public, even though they believe something different in private. A driver might follow the speed limit or wear a tie which is a behavior to conform to social norms even though we may not necessarily believe that it is appropriate to do so which is opinion. However, behaviors that are formerly executed out of a desire to be accepted which is normative conformity may frequently produce changes in beliefs to match them and the result becomes private acceptance which is for instance a child who begins smoking to please his friends but soon convinces himself that it is the right thing to do or a prisoner of war who eventually accepts the political beliefs of his captor.
