In this episode of Kid Nation, I see Conformity. I see it by when they all have to take the trash far away and bury it. Taylor and her friend won't help with the trash. The other kids though are doing conformity. Conformity is adjusting behavior to match group expectations.
Another word I see is cooperation. I see this by one of the boys stepping up and telling everyone that they need water, so he asked all the other kids who wanted to help. Most of the kids raised their hands which shows cooperation. Cooperation is interaction in which individuals or groups combine efforts to achieve a common goal.
They all wanted one of the prizes they had won. One was fruits and vegetables or dune buggies. The leaders had to groupthink, they all thought that the dune buggy would cause fights. So they decided to pick the fruits and vegetables. Groupthink means thinking based on following the group beliefs rather than your individual ideas; it's often based on pressure from the group.
