Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The false impression of what most other people are thinking or feeling, or how they are responding, is known as pluralistic ignorance. This occurs when individuals believe that their own private beliefs or attitudes do not match the social norms or values, causing them to behave differently than they would otherwise. It is common in situations where individuals are unsure how to act or respond and may lead to a lack of action or inappropriate behavior.
