Berns Et Al 2005

Participants' initial judgments on mental rotation tasks and music ratings were changed by the opinions of peers, affecting neural activity in low-level processing brain areas related to each task. Prior research also found that brain regions involved in reward processing and behavioral adjustment were linked to social influence. Social influence can alter people's judgments and neural activity in areas involved in basic perceptual tasks as well as regions tied to reward and behavioral change.

By using mental rotation task and music rating task, Berns et al.

(2005, 2010)
found that the opinions of peers could change participants’ initial judgments
and affect neural activity within relatively low-level processing brain areas
related to each task. In addition, previous literatures have reported that the
brain regions associated with reward processing and behavioral adjustment
were closely associated with social influence.
