Solution

failed
Answer

The answers are:

  • a willingness to ignore ethical consequences
  • self-censorship
  • an illusion of unanimity
Explanation
Option 1: a willingness to ignore ethical consequences

This is a characteristic of groupthink. Members of a group may overlook ethical or moral consequences to maintain harmony and consensus within the group.

Option 2: self-censorship

Self-censorship is typical in groupthink situations, where individuals suppress their own doubts or objections to align with the perceived group consensus.

Option 3: an illusion of unanimity

An illusion of unanimity occurs when group members mistakenly believe that everyone is in agreement, often because dissenting opinions are not voiced.

Option 4: working together to reach a common goal

While working together to reach a common goal is a characteristic of effective teamwork, it is not specifically indicative of groupthink. Groupthink involves a lack of critical evaluation and the suppression of dissenting viewpoints, which is not necessarily present in all group efforts to achieve a common goal.
