Group think can have sundry implications and can have serious consequences as their are polarized opinions. And there is seldom IA buffer. But the question remains would people of a certain personalitt characteristic be dormant within a group?

Group think can be understood by observation of groups in their natural setting and proving them with a conundrum that one already knows the best possible solutions to, and at the end of the brains toeming session, asking them for their desired course of action, that is, their decision. By that, it can be seem whether the effects were seen or not.
