Answer:

This is an example of the power of status on conformity.

Explanation:

Conformity can be described as the change in beliefs or behaviors that occurs when there is real or imagined social pressure. According to the passage in the question, if a person is well dressed and does not jaywalk (cross the street where it is not allowed), other people tend to follow their example. Researches have found that people from higher social status tend to not be influenced, while people from intermediate social status are more prone to conform.

Why do historians need to study geography?
lisabon 2012 [21]
Geography influences our life now and it did so in the past. Because of this it helps understand the reasons for some events.

For example geography helps you understand why ancient Greece was composed of many small independent city-states rather than one empire: Greece is composed of many islands and valleys separated by mountains, and it was easy to defend those settlements so they were not conquered by other settlements ( as it was the case in other countries).
