Is it true that group discussion improves decision-making?
Partly. A reference overview says collective decisions tend to be more effective than individual ones under normal conditions, though it notes groups often fall short. A 2025 experiment found facilitation of group discussion did not significantly change final decision outcomes, and a meta-analysis found groups share unique information poorly.
