Question 38

A school's eco-committee introduces a meat-free Monday policy.

  • Toby agrees to eat vegetarian meals on Mondays at school so his peers do not mock him, but privately prefers eating meat and continues to eat meat at home.
  • Sarah reads the literature provided by the committee, becomes fully convinced that meat consumption is harmful to the environment, and permanently adopts a vegan diet both at school and at home.

Identify the type of conformity shown by Toby and the type of conformity shown by Sarah. Define both of these types, and briefly explain one difference between them.
