Answer:c.Participants were affected by informational social influence.

Explanation:

Informational Social influence occurs when an individual have their behaviour impacted to change by what is implied by others because they believe this is true then they conform to that idea.

A person who hears this information will want to be correct themselves hence the conformation to what they believe to be right.
