Answer:

D. Contagion Theory

Explanation:

The Contagion Theory is a theory about the collective behavior of human beings. In short, it holds that the behaviors, ideas or mood of a group of people can be transferred to other individuals, even if those features are unreasonable and inconsistent with the individual's personality or behavior. However, this effect is temporary, because once the individual leaves the crowd, the effect goes away. The theory suggests that the crowd is "contagious": it exerts a hypnotic influence on their members because people have a habit of following the crowd, just like it happens in the quote.
