In order to join the OLC (Oranges and Lemons Club) girls must undergo an embarrassing initiation rite that we had better not go into here. Despite this, successful members value becoming an OLC person, probably because they have experienced:

A) group prototypicality.
B) norm formation.
C) dissonance reduction.
D) group salience.

Initiation Rite

A ceremony, ritual, or event marking the entrance or acceptance of an individual into a group or society.
