The statement is TRUE.
In 1951 Solomon Asch carried out the famous Conformity Experiments, set out to <u>measure the dynamics of group-thinking</u>. He presented his subjects with an extremely simple judgement task with a very obvious answer, joined by a previously prepared group that was told to answer incorrectly on purpose. By making it so simple, it would be clear that any subject that answered incorrectly would be doing it because of group pressure. With this first experiment, <u>Asch proved a correlation between a group's influence on an individual's conformity</u>.
Further trials went deeper into which factors were the most impactful to influence conformity. The results showed that <u>increasing group size</u> by up to three times, <u>raised the conformity levels to 32%</u>. However, larger groups did not impact this number. Applying group unanimity, on the other hand, showed an increase of as much as 80% on the conformity rates.
This clarified how much bigger of an influence unanimity was over group size, meaning it mattered more to an individual if an entire group agreed on something (even if the group was small), over a larger majority's opinion when a group was more split-up.
Hope this helps!

ANSWER: COMBINATION OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND MEDICATION.
EXPLANATION:
Paraphilia refers to the experience of intense sexual arousal elicited by an objects, behaviors, conditions, or fantasies. Thus, in the case of Lindsey, her sexual arousal is elicited by pain.
However, this disorder can be treated by using the combination of psychotherapy and medication.
The psychotherapy entails cognitive and behavioral strategies to change her thinking patterns and behaviors. It focuses on helping her identity and reorganize her behavior, and setting up techniques (such as orgasmic reconditioning), to control her sexual impulses. Other psychotherapy techniques such as covert sensitization can also be established, in other to make her fantasize about pain while feeling pain.
Secondly, Lindsey is administered with medications that suppress production of her sexual hormone, in other to reduce the frequency or intensity of her sexual desire. Thus, Drugs such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), can be giving to her. This drugs will decrease her sexual obsessiveness and also stimulate her to control her impulses. Examples of SSRI medications include paroxetine, fluoxetine, sertraline, citalopram, and etc.
