Question 10 of 10 Which of the following is an example of groupthink? A. The moon landing B. The Bay of Pigs invasion C. The election of Barack Obama D. The World Trade Center bombing

The correct answer is:<br /><br />B. The Bay of Pigs invasion<br /><br />Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people when the desire for harmony or conformity results in an irrational or dysfunctional decision-making outcome. The Bay of Pigs invasion is often cited as a classic example of groupthink, where the U.S. government made poor decisions due to the pressure to conform and the lack of critical evaluation of alternatives.
