Question

You form an alliance with a group of your coworkers at the office and agree that you will only discuss group-related matters at 1pm on Wednesdays. This is an example of a:
a. Group decision
b. Group dynamic
c. Group cohesiveness measure
d. Group Norm

Answer 1

Answer:

d. Group Norm

Explanation:

Group Norms are informal rules that generally discourage behaviors that impede the efficacy of a group and and encourage the group to work efficiently.

They are regulations that groups adopt that ensure some form of order and they are also a reflection of the expectation of members of the group should interact and work.

Here, agreeing that members of the group will only discuss group-related matters at 1pm on Wednesdays is an example of a Group Norm because;

1. It is an unwritten rule

2. It is majorly to ensure that order is maintained so that the purpose of the group remains undefeated.
