Q7 어법1 다음 글의 밑줄 친 부분 중, 어법상 틀린 것은?

Environmental psychologists make a distinction between the physical measurement of density (how many people are in a particular space) and crowding (the psychological feeling of not having enough space). Usually, high density is needed for the phenomenon of crowding, ① that makes people experience sensory overload, a lack of control, and ② rising stress and anxiety. However, some psychologists see crowding as neutral rather than invariably negative, and believe ③ that people's moods and behaviors intensify as density increases. So if an individual is looking forward to a concert, say, the feeling of crowding enhances their enjoyment of the performance. But if they are dreading an event, crowding will make the person's experience of it even worse. ④ Put into a community setting, crowding may accentuate the dominant behavior - an aggressive group may turn violent as density rises. Conversely, creating positive social spaces such as parks and pedestrian areas in high-density urban environments may help to lift the general mood and ⑤ defuse tension.
