This process can range from simple choices, such as deciding what to wear, to complex decisions, like choosing a major in college or a career path.

When in group settings, we are often influenced by the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around us.

In such situations, the group often takes action that individuals would not perform outside the group setting because groups make more extreme decisions than individuals do. Moreover, groupthink can hinder opposing trains of...
