Compliance is when people appear to agree with others, but actually keep their dissenting opinions private.
Identification is when people are influenced by someone who is liked and respected, such as a famous celebrity or a favorite uncle.
Internalization is when people accept a belief or behavior and agree both publicly and privately.
