Answer:

groupshift.

Explanation:

This scenario describes the operation of groupshift.

This can be defined as a phenomenon that occurs to explain that when people are part of a group, their risk decisions are made differently than they would be made if they were alone. Shared group risk decreases individual risk, so decisions that are made in a group are often more risky.

One of the reasons for groupshift is that the emotional bonds created in the group help to reduce anxiety and tension within the group and therefore the risk seems less.

Answer:

Groupshift

Explanation:

Groupshift is a change between a group's decision and an individual decision that a member within the group would make; the shift can be toward either conservatism or greater risk, but it generally is toward a more extreme version of the group's original position.
