Karlsen's Law is a principle in the field of social sciences that suggests individuals tend to conform to group norms and behaviors, often at the expense of their personal beliefs. This phenomenon highlights the influence of peer pressure and social dynamics on decision-making processes. The law is named after Dr. Lars Karlsen, a sociologist who studied group behavior and conformity in various settings. His research demonstrated that people are more likely to adopt the attitudes and actions of those around them, especially in ambiguous situations where they seek validation or acceptance from the group.
