Interviewer: So Lerato, can you tell me about your commitment to the group?
Lerato: Well, I would say my commitment to the group is mainly driven by normative factors. You see, we were assigned to these groups, and I believe that I have no choice but to work with you all. I see this as the only way to pass the module, so I am committed to putting in my best effort.
Interviewer: That makes sense. Can you provide me with a practical example that validates this?
Lerato: Sure, let me give you an example. Last week, when we were discussing the project timeline, I mentioned that I couldn't dedicate as much time during the weekends due to my part-time job. However, I rearranged my work schedule to accommodate the group's needs. I did this because I felt a sense of obligation to contribute my fair share to the group's success, as I believe it is essential for all of us to pass the module.
Interviewer: That is a great example, Lerato. Your commitment based on normative factors is clear, as you felt obligated to adjust your personal schedule for the sake of the group. Thank you for sharing.
