Conformity: the hidden actor in surgical decisions
Conformity in decision making has a relevant impact in surgical environments. This manuscript reveals how group-based opinions can distort the surgeon's individual judgment, even in critical situations. Two key phenomena are analysed: communication cascades and group polarisation, which amplify conformity and lead to extreme and sometimes harmful decisions.
It is important to highlight the importance of evidence-based education, critical thinking, and diversification of information sources to counteract the negative effects of conformity. Self-identifying conformist tendencies, encouraging open debate, and implementing constructive dissent strategies can help mitigate the effects of conformity in decision-making. Reviewing authority models and promoting diversity in surgical settings may improve decision-making and the quality of patient care.
