Question 17

Jesper has just started a new job at a software development firm. On his first day, he notices that all his colleagues leave their laptops open on their desks when they go for lunch, rather than locking them in their drawers. Although he is used to locking his laptop at his previous workplace, he decides to leave his laptop open too, because he wants to fit in and avoid appearing overly suspicious or untrusting to his new team.

Name one explanation for Jesper's conforming behaviour and justify your choice.
