The robust beauty of majority rules in group decisions. (2005, background): “Even when a small group has an explicit rule other than a majority rule, the largest initial faction, that is, the plurality, is usually the ultimate winner (cf. Hastie, Penrod, & Pennington, 1983; Kameda, Tindale, & Davis, 2003; Kerr & Tindale, 2004).”
Repairing trust with individuals vs. groups (2013, background): “…that may generally affect the relationship between these individual and group judgments, but their work as well as more recent observations by Kerr and Tindale (2004) also ultimately makes clear that it is only through closer scrutiny of the specific mechanisms underlying trust repair that…”
Social influence in small groups: An interactive model of social identity formation (2005, background): “Indeed, being concerned primarily with perceptions of groups and actions towards outgroups, these studies are somewhat removed from the conventional concerns of small group researchers and practitioners (e.g., with issues of productivity and decision making, Kerr & Tindale, 2004).”
When Is It Better to Learn Together? Insights from Research on Collaborative Learning (2015, background): “…of dyad or group performance compared to individual performance on a single task such as puzzle problem solving (e.g., Laughlin et al. 2006), brainstorming (e.g., Paulus and Yang 2000), and scientific discovery (e.g., Okada and Simon 1997), among others (see Kerr and Tindale 2004 for a review).”
The Effects of Team-Skills Training on Transactive Memory and Performance (2007, background): “Researchers have argued that it is one of the contributing factors that explain the difference between good and poor team performance, especially with respect to superior team interaction and well-coordinated behavior (Cannon-Bowers, Salas, & Converse, 1993; Kerr & Tindale, 2004).”
Group Decision Making Under Conditions of Distributed Knowledge: The Information Asymmetries Model. (2007, background): “However, research about group decision-making suggests that groups often fail to effectively use their full informational potential (see for reviews, e.g., Hinsz, Tindale, & Vollrath, 1997; Kerr & Tindale, 2004).”
Enhancing the Effectiveness of Work Groups and Teams (2006, background): “Readers interested in the specific and extensive research in these areas are directed to Kerr and Tindale (2004) for a recent review on group decisionmaking. Similarly, we do not specifically review the voluminous research on team composition and diversity. Interested readers are directed to Mannix ”
