A Systematic Review of Research on Conformity.
Article in International review of social psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This systematic review offers a comprehensive overview of conformity research conducted since 2004. Adhering to the PRISMA guidelines, the review identified 48 relevant articles from a substantial pool (literature review conducted between January and April 2023), systematically extracting valuable insights into key findings, methodologies, and future research directions. While recent studies confirm the prevalence of conformity across diverse contexts, echoing Asch's seminal findings (1951), the review emphasizes the need for a unified understanding of influencing factors, including age, gender, and culture, with contextual variables playing a central role. Advances in digital technology have expanded research possibilities, enabling investigations across diverse digital contexts. Researchers employ innovative methods such as computer-mediated communication (Cinnirella & Green 2007) and virtual reality (Kyrlitsias et al. 2020) to explore conformity within digital spaces that closely mirror real online interactions. Given the evolving landscape of conformity research, this review advocates for further interdisciplinary and intercultural investigations, comprehensive meta-analyses, and replications to deepen our understanding of this multifaceted phenomenon.
