Collective Intelligence is a Group's General Intelligence
Anita Woolley and their team found that groups, like individuals, possess a single statistical factor, akin to individual intelligence, which predicts their performance across various tasks. Termed collective intelligence, this group factor mirrors the concept of general intelligence found in individuals, shedding light on what makes groups effective across tasks. In initial studies, it was assessed whether collective intelligence could predict performance on tasks not included in its calculation. Groups were assigned complex tasks requiring a combination of abilities, like playing checkers against a computer or constructing structures with building blocks under specific rules. Results revealed that collective intelligence scores strongly predicted performance on these complex tasks, surpassing the predictive power of either the group members' average or maximum individual intelligence.
