Explanation of Solution

Reason for the correct statement:

Deindividuation describes a decrease in one’s personal identity and sense of personal responsibility when they are part of a group. Wearing a disguise while taking part in a group activity is another example of this process. The social situations and roles we assume can also influence this process. However, hearing someone call you and recognize you is unrelated to deindividuation.

Reasons for the incorrect statements:

Option (A) refers to doing something as part of a large group. While this is indeed related to deindividuation, it is not limited to this occurrence. So, option (A) is incorrect.

Option (C) refers to losing your sense of personal responsibility. While this is indeed related to deindividuation, it is not limited to this occurrence. So, option (C) is incorrect.

Option (D) refers to wearing a disguise while taking part in a group activity. While this is indeed related to deindividuation, it is not limited to this occurrence. So, option (D) is incorrect.

Therefore, the options (A), (C), and (D) are incorrect.
