Answer:

use others' behaviors as cues for what's right

Explanation:

From this question we can see that when these participants did this individually they were all independent. Each person's estimate was based on his own observation. But in groups they became dependent on what other members have to say and this ended up influencing the estimates. By conformity, the group is able to influence the participants to change their independent beliefs.
