Psychology of Compliance

Explanation:

The students will behave accordingly because the teacher is expecting this of them. When she leaves they no longer have to do what she expects of them. This type of compliance is called social compliance, it speaks to the expectation that an individual has on a group or crowd. The individuals in the group feel obligated to do what the single individual tells them to do or believes that s/he expects them to behave in a certain way. Whenever the individual leaves the order is broken down and there is no more an expectation or a requirement. This is mostly seen in school aged persons and is a phenomenon to observe.
