PSYC 305 WEEK 5 DISCUSSION 1

Group Think :

Imagine yourself serving on a jury. You listen to the testimony and feel the accused is innocent. When you retire to discuss the case with the other jury members, you find most of the jury (at least those who are vocal) feel the accused is guilty. What would you do? How could this example easily escalate to groupthink? How prevalent do you think this is in most teams?
