Hello, BellaBouye205. Your answer would be Kurt Lewin. In the later years of his life, he devoted his time to studying small social groups. He claimed that groups change people's behaviorally as an individual. He also said that the small groups flourished greatly whenever they were preformed in a democratic way. I hope I helped!! Have a great evening.
William Schultz was the researcher responsible for pointing out that in small groups our greatest need is to know if we belong to the group. According to him, small groups as well as individuals are not born mature, productive and knowing which branch they belong to. By joining a small group, each person will go through different stages of understanding their interpersonal needs, while the group itself will somehow meet those needs as relationships between different people members have special characteristics. In this way, the individual is able to recognize whether he belongs to that group or not.
