Two decades of research into groups reveals how otherwise honest individuals might behave unethically when they become part of a group decision-making body.
Self-focused group members succeed in swinging a vote two-thirds of the time.Groups identifying as trustworthy are more ethical., justice, and compassionate social change. These same group aspects can lead to levels of hate and destruction that individuals cannot match.” R. Scott Tindale and Jeremy R. Winget, Loyola University Department of Psychology, Chicago, Tindale and Winget suggest that individual and group behavior differences result from inherent different perspectives.
Except insofar as voters indicate their preferences at the ballot box, high levels of immunity exist at all levels of government. The power wielded in office and the support of government attorneys acting not in the best interest of the people who pay them but in the best interest of the governing body that appoints them, shield officials from prosecution for negligence and dishonesty.
Although groups are not universally prone to unethical action, fear and greed are more prevalent in intergroup than in interpersonal interactions. Groups self-protect by competing more, withdrawing more, and cooperating less than individuals and are more likely than individuals to be feared and distrusted.when expecting to be distrusted, groups lie even less than the composite of their individual members because honesty optimizes group outcomes,to group norms.
