Dynamics of group problem-solving

Couple of interesting things about this study of group intelligence:

1. it is something other than a sum of the individuals that make up the group (seemingly having more to do with how well those people work together),
2. the number of women in the group was linked to its problem-solving ability.

Another plug for the values of diversity, as well as the specific skills (whether inherent or socialized) of women in particular.
