• cognitive The part of mental functions that deals with logic, as opposed to affective functions, which deal with emotion.
• communicative rationality A theory or set of theories which describes human rationality as a necessary outcome of successful
communication.
• consensus A process of decision-making that seeks widespread agreement among group members.

detailed analysis of every particular situation.

Group dynamics: the New Zealand All Blacks


Rugby, a game with fifteen players per team, is the ultimate team game. Group dynamics require all fifteen players to work together, often demanding
tremendous synergy to outlast an opponent. The historic success of New Zealand's All Blacks has been attributed not only to skill, but also to how the
team achieves ideal group dynamics.

Prospect theory and risk aversion


This graph represents Kahneman and Tversky's theory. The distance between the x-axis and the curve is smaller in the positive direction (i.e., for
positive outcomes, or gains) than it is in the negative direction (i.e., for negative outcomes, or losses). This means that people's positive value of gains is
less than people's negative value of losses. In other words, people are more sensitive to possible risk than to possible gain.
