Abstract

First, all subjects were shown the process of escape behavior of other four subjects (comrades) concentrating to one of five routes, then they were told that they should decide whether to change escape route or persist to that route. During observation of comrades' behavior, the subjects were free to decide whether to change the route or not. The results indicated that conformity levels fluctuated according to the feedback from the others' behavior. This fluctuation was explained using a Markov model. According to this model, the transitional probability, which consists of that factors of conformity, fixation and preference, depend on information concerning others' behavior were made available.
