Bad apples

General


http://liberalorder.typepad.com/the_liberal_order/files/bad_apples_rob.pdf

A study seems to show that when a "bad apple" individual is put in a group then other members in that group start behaving like the bad apple.

The interesting corollary is that the best predictor of a group's performance is what the worst group member is like.

So why am I posting this on the general forum? Because when you see certain bad apples on the forums then interacting with them will only bring the thread to the lowest common denominator. And don't we know how true that is.

You know who they are.

They're far too bitter to be apples. I like to think of them as malevolent lemons.
