intro to catw 2


In the article, “In Groups We Shrink”, by Carol Tavris illustrates the idea of individual’s personalities changing once among a group. Conveying, that one’s actions completely differ from when alone in comparison to when in attendance with other individuals during a time crisis or climactic matters. I concur with the author’s notion of a person’s reaction with or without a group having more to do with the group dynamic or “the nature of the groups than the nature of the individuals”.  The gravity of a situation can create great trepidation when a group is established and the occurrence is random. A poised individual attending to a task at hand can be vacillated when case of an emergency which will delay a response. Whens roles are places within a group, the actions cared out can create movement or stagnation within a group. During sporting events, security is provided to prevent any interference to occur during the event taking place. However, on occasion the event can be interrupted by a very inebriated individual.
