Abstract

This article discusses a study which explained how tactics like organized marching and propaganda can work to exert mass mind control. Conducted by Scott Wiltermuth of Stanford University in California and colleagues, the study separated 96 people into four groups who performed different tasks together. The study found that activities performed in unison, such as marching or dancing, increase loyalty to the group.
