In a study ... of 700 members of committees concerned with "educating" the public to appreciate the products of a nationwide industry, the observation was made that members more actively followed the practices approved by their groups if negative sanctions were often used than if they were not. Thus, members behaved as expected by their colleagues because they knew that unpleasant consequences were likely to follow if they did not.
