a. groupthink.
b. group polarization.
c. the Abilene paradox.
d. an escalation of commitment.

b. groups to ostracize members who do not agree with them.
c. group discussion to mitigate group opinion; producing less extreme judgment than might be obtained by pooling individuals' views separately.
d. group discussion to intensify group opinion; producing more extreme judgment than might be obtained by pooling individuals' views separately.
