Individual versus group decision-making processes (Individual hand-in)

Ordering off a menu is a very different process if you are ordering your own meal or if you are working on a group order that will be split amongst a number of people. If you are alone, you can use one set of criteria: What do you like? What are you hungry for? What have you had at this restaurant in the past that was good? If you are working on a group order, you might have to engage an entirely different set of criteria: Are there any food allergies in the group? Are there people in the group whose religious or ethical beliefs require them to avoid certain dishes or ingredients? Will the cost be split amongst the group fairly so that some are not paying much more for the preferences of a few?

In this Assignment, you will consider the similarities and differences between individual and group decision-making processes.
