- Definition(s)
- Gândirea de grup apare atunci când membrii grupului au o puternică dorinţă de consens şi coeziune şi sunt mai puţin interesaţi să ajungă la cea mai bună soluţie cu putinţă. Unele cauze ale gândirii de grup sunt izolarea grupului faţă de informaţiile externe, existenţa unui lider puternic şi dominant şi lipsa de proceduri de căutare potrivită de alternative şi asigurare a luării în considerare a tuturor părerilor. Prof. Paula Gabriela Șerban - by Veronica Costea
- Example sentence(s)
- Conceptul de gandire de grup a fost consacrat de psihologul Irving Janis in 1972 care a studiat cauzele esecului actiunii militare de la Bay of Pigs, orchestrate de CIA prin intermediul a 1400 de exilati, pentru rasturnarea de la putere a lui Fidel Castro. - ELF Consulting by Veronica Costea

- Definition(s)
- Groepsdenken is een psycho-sociaal fenomeen, waarbij een groep van op zich zeer bekwame personen zodanig wordt beïnvloed door groepsprocessen, dat de kwaliteit van groepsbesluiten vermindert. Het ontstaat als groepsleden primair letten op het behoud van overeenstemming en eensgezindheid bij een beslissingsproces in plaats van een kritische overweging van de feiten. Wikipedia - by Hester Eymers
- Example sentence(s)
- Het meeste groepsdenken berust op vooroordelen van allerlei soort, waarvoor het beste excuus is dat aangezien mensen sociale dieren zijn ze een instinctieve motivatie hebben om tot een groep te willen behoren en deze te ondersteunen. - M. Maartensz-Filosofisch woordenboek by Hester Eymers
- In de jaren ’70 introduceerde de Amerikaan Irving Janis zijn theorie over groepsdenken: ‘Een manier van denken die plaatsvindt wanneer het verlangen om de harmonie in een groep te bewaren, een realistische kijk met alternatieve gedachtegangen onmogelijk maakt.’ - InfoNu.nl by Hester Eymers
