 Belief Congruence - Psychology Dictionary of Arguments
 
Belief congruence: Belief congruence in psychology refers to the alignment or similarity between an individual's beliefs and the beliefs of those in their social environment. People tend to seek and associate with others who share similar beliefs, fostering a sense of belonging and reinforcing existing attitudes. This phenomenon can influence social cohesion and the formation of group identities. See also Conformity, Groupthink, Group behavior.
