Suppose that subject 67 (quoted in the passage) is at a party for gay men and overhears a group of other men, including the party's host, having a conversation about him. the host mentions that subject 67 is bisexual and indicates that this would be a disadvantage in terms of dating him, and almost all of the men in the group readily agree. one of the group members states that he wouldn't mind dating subject 67 despite his bisexuality, but another member quickly rejects this statement and changes the subject. this type of censorship within a group in order to avoid disharmony is known as:

a. mindguarding.
b. social comparison.
c. informational influence.
d. group polarization.

That type of censorship within a group in order to avoid disharmony is known as mindguarding.

Option A

Explanation:

Mind guarding is an aspect of group think wherein a group member or members do not allow any dissenting opinion to affect the harmony of the group. Mind-guards are people who prevent the group from being affected by any information that is not valid and may bring about disharmony.

The mind guards prevent any type of information that may lead to dividing the group on the basis of controversies that may be generated because of the information. Mind guards can be individuals or several members of the group who make sure that the group relationships are not impacted by misleading and misguiding information.

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

another line in the declaration of independence is that people have certain rights just because they are human. humans are capable of obeying the three natural rights john locke mentioned making them governable by these laws and therefore entitled to these rights as well.
