- (D) A lesson from Janis’s research on groupthink is that it is important for people to voice dissent.
Groupthink occurs when dissent in a group is suppressed in order to preserve harmony, and bad
decisions result. Classic examples include the Bay of Pigs fiasco and the Challenger explosion.
Unanimity, pressure, and homogeneity are all factors that can promote groupthink. Groupthink can
occur in groups of any size.
