Manipulating a synchronous or separatist group orientation to improve performance on a hidden profile task

摘要: Effective use of available information is a problem that plagues group decision-making tasks. Groups heavily favor shared information, or known to all members, which can lead incorrect decisions and selection inferior alternatives. However, groups may be less prone overlooking unshared if they are focused value uniqueness novel input from members. The present research demonstrates uniqueness, separatist orientation, correctly solved hidden profile task more often than with synchronous similarity. Separatist repeated overall. Separatists also groups. Further, correct minority member either majority no Results discussed in terms focus biases affect the discu...
