Cognitive inertia
- ... that cognitive inertia plays a role in why a lack of ideas are generated during group brainstorming sessions as it, “promotes one-track thinking and diminishes the performance of groups”Jablin, Fredric M.; Seibold, David R. (1978). "Implications for problem‐solving groups of empirical research on 'brainstorming': A critical review of the literature".

5x expanded by Abinnquist (talk). Self-nominated at 00:03, 28 November 2019 (UTC).
The article has been 5x expanded, and is an interesting, well-researched, and nicely referenced article, though it goes beyond my knowledge to entirely review it for accuracy (my Masters thesis was in perception rather than its neighbour cognition). I have done a little copyediting - such things as a few additional links and correcting the capitalisation of the section headings, and it looks like a little more such tidying may be required, though that should be easily done. My main concern is that the quote in your DYK hook is behind a paywall, and it also makes fairly long. I'm wondering whether shortening it to simply:
- Alt1 "... that cognitive inertia plays a role in why a lack of ideas are generated during group brainstorming sessions?"
- @Abinnquist: can you comment on the review? Does anyone have a citation for Alt1? --evrik (talk) 19:55, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Evrik: @Abinnquist: It looks like the source for ALT 1 is article reference #8. I'm in support of ALT 1. Yerkes-Dodson (talk) 23:31, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Yerkes-Dodson: @Evrik: Alt1 is great and you are correct that reference 8 would be the right source. I'm still somewhat new to the Wiki world so sorry for any delay. If I need to change anything just let me know, thanks. Abinnquist (talk) 01:11, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
