Recall, from our discussion, that groupthink “occurs when group members reason that they cannot be wrong and reject any argument contrary to their own—rejecting criticism from internal members and criticism from people in out-groups” (Janis and Mann, 1977).

Furthermore, Janis and Mann identified 8 symptoms of groupthink:

An illusion of invulnerability

Collective efforts to rationalize

Unquestioned belief in the group’s inherent morality

Stereotyped views of rivals and enemies
Direct pressure on a member who expresses arguments against any of the group’s stereotypes, illusions, or commitments
Self-censorship of deviations from apparent group consensus
A shared illusion of unanimity
The emergence of self-appointed “mind guards” (p.131)
Select 1 of the following real-world occurrences of groupthink:
Bay of Pigs
Pearl Harbor bombing

Space Shuttle Challenger explosion

Salem witch trials

Switch to New Coke
