Read the following feature story and answer the questions below.

Everyone has heard stories of first-time parents who rush to the emergency room every time their child coughs. Nobody wants to be that parent. But nobody wants to be the one who ignores scary warning signs. Keeping children healthy and safe is a top priority, one made more difficult by the curious and fearless nature of kids. This is why Children’s Hospital of Minnesota created “What’s Wrong With My Child,” a resource for all parents to understand how to keep children healthy, and how to handle illnesses or emergencies.

The 32-page booklet offers information on childhood illnesses and conditions, tips on preventive care, and explanations of treatments, procedures and diagnostic tests. It also provides a list of Web sites parents can visit for even more information about keeping a child healthy and safe. “It’s a tremendous resource,” said Dr. Ian Miller, the hospital’s executive director. “Every parents should have it within arm’s reach.”

The hospital has teamed up with HRX pharmacies throughout the country to make “What’s Wrong With My Child,” available free of charge, according to Jamie Middleburg, company spokeswoman. First-time parent Melissa Heller raced her toddler to the emergency room when he had a fever last month. It turned out her son had an ear infection.

“Ok, so it wasn’t major, but I was freaking out because it was his first fever,” said Heller, 29, of Minneapolis. “I need to get one of those booklets.” For more information about “What’s Wrong With My Child,” visit the hospital’s Web site www. chm. org.

Recall that in one condition of the experiment conducted by stasser and titus (1985) about student council president candidates, all group members had access to the same information, and that in another condition, members had unique information that other group members didn't know. in the second (unshared information) condition, the group made a worse decision than in the first (shared information) condition. this occurred because groups seldom can agree on who is most expert. focus discussion on the information that all members know. often ignore dissenting opinions. avoid differences of opinion, given conformity pressures.
