摘要
Reports on the relationship between the size of a stimulus crowd, standing on a busy city street looking up at a building, and the response of passersby. As the size of the stimulus crowd was increased a greater proportion of passersby adopted the behavior of the crowd. Ss were 1424 pedestrians. The results suggest a modification of the J. S. Coleman and J. James (see 36:1) model of the size of free-forming groups to include a contagion assumption.
