The correct answer is A) group polarization.

Groups sometimes recommend more uncertain options than do individual decision-makers in a phenomenon called group polarization.

When this phenomenon is presented, people are prone to risky shifts, which means that the members of the group act in a more risky or reckless way because they feel protected as part of the group. So this makes the members of the group make more aggressive or bolder decisions.
