A psychologist conducted a study at her home during an annual activity of children wearing masks and going

door-to-door receiving candy. Some of the children arrived alone, while others arrived in a group. Over the

course of the night, the psychologist asked half of the children to remove their masks when they arrived at her

door. The remaining half kept their masks on. The psychologist told every child to take only one piece of candy.

She then went inside the house, leaving the bowl of candy outside. This gave children the opportunity to take

additional candy. The psychologist measured the percentage of children who took additional candy. The

psychologist's hypotheses were that children would take more candy when they were alone and that children

would take more candy when they were masked. The results are shown in the graph below; assume all

differences are significant.

Deindividuation occurs when children go to some where in a group form.

Explanation:

Deindividuation is a process in which the person act differently when they are in the form of group as compared to alone. This means that the emotion of one person spreads like a flu in the group. If one person act differently in a group which is not appropriate, the other persons of the group do the same because this is human psychology. Those children that were not identify due to wearing cosumes steals more candy because they know that they were not identify by the other person.
