Editing Group polarization (section)

===College life===
On a smaller scale, group polarization can also be seen in the everyday lives of students in [[higher education]]. A study by Myers in 2005 reported that initial differences among American college students become more accentuated over time. For example, students who do not belong to fraternities and sororities tend to be more liberal politically, and this difference increases over the course of their college careers. Researchers theorize that this is at least partially explained by group polarization, as group members tend to reinforce one another's proclivities and opinions.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Exploring Social Psychology: Fourth Edition|last=Myers|first=DG|publisher=McGraw Hill|year=2007}}</ref>
