Collective Behavioral Theory

Collective Behavioral Theory suggests that individuals’ behaviors are influenced by the group they are part of, often leading to shared actions and attitudes. When people interact within a social environment, their choices can be shaped by group norms, peer influence, and the desire for social acceptance. This theory helps explain how behaviors, ideas, or trends can spread quickly through communities or populations, especially when individuals align their actions with the collective. It highlights the power of group dynamics in shaping behavior, emphasizing that people often act differently in groups than they might alone.
