For groupthink, do you think that could also apply to a jury? Needing everyone to agree with pressure from the formen?

[@AlexanderSwan]

Oh absolutely! 12 Angry Men is a phenomenal stage play/film that shows just this.

[@Ag-bk1zw]

how does social comparison lead to group polarisation?

[@AlexanderSwan]

Well, one way is when the comparisons, up or down, become attitudes (rich people are mean), and then those get polarized when amongst like-minded folks and they turn more extreme (eat the rich).
