Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The described group decision-making method of systematically pooling individual judgments in an independent fashion is known as the nominal group technique. Brainstorming involves generating as many ideas as possible without immediately evaluating them. In-group and reference groups refer to particular types of social groups, while interacting groups involve face-to-face interaction but do not necessarily involve the systematic independent pooling of judgments.
