Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Groupthink often involves a sense of invulnerability leading to over-optimism and risk-taking, collective rationalization to discount warnings, belief in inherent morality of the group, stereotyping those outside the group, pressure on dissenters to conform, self-censorship of deviations from the apparent group consensus, a shared illusion of unanimity, and self-appointed ‘mindguards’ to protect the group from dissenting information. Pressure to conform and an overarching belief in the group's morality are symptoms of groupthink.
