Compliance refers to the act of conforming to the expectations or demands of a group while privately disagreeing with them. In this scenario, David goes along with the sales group's decisions even though he privately disagrees with them. This is an example of compliance. Reactance involves reacting against the pressure to conform, acceptance involves genuinely agreeing with the group, and independence involves standing up for one's own beliefs and not conforming.
