Pick number 2 its the right one
Believing that others are right is
to private acceptance and as conforming without believing is to public
compliance. Public compliance involves a change in behavior including the
public expression of opinions that is not accompanied by an actual change in
one’s private opinion. Thus, compliance represents what people do or say in
public, even though they believe something different in private. A driver might
follow the speed limit or wear a tie which is a behavior to conform to social
norms even though we may not necessarily believe that it is appropriate to do
so which is opinion. However, behaviors that are formerly executed out of a
desire to be accepted which is normative conformity may frequently produce
changes in beliefs to match them and the result becomes private acceptance
which is for instance a child who begins smoking to please his friends but soon
convinces himself that it is the right thing to do or a prisoner of war who
eventually accepts the political beliefs of his captor.
