    {
      "heading": "What the literature establishes",
      "point": "Garold Stasser and William Titus (1985, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) showed experimentally that group discussions can favour information initially shared by members over information held by just one person."
    },
    {
      "heading": "Why some information circulates more readily",
      "point": "Garold Stasser and William Titus (1987, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology) examined how information load and the proportion of shared information influence the dissemination of unshared information."
    },
    {
      "heading": "The tempting but premature conclusion",
      "point": "One might conclude that information supplied by just one person should always take precedence."
    },
    {
      "heading": "What these findings cannot promise",
      "point": "These experiments involve controlled group decision tasks, not the everyday allocation of time in precision industries."

      "heading": "A practical check in Neuchâtel",
      "point": "In a Neuchâtel team working in microtechnology, watchmaking or precision microelectronics, SHR’s “[Time Management & Prioritisation](/formation-gestion-du-temps-neuchatel)” programme could incorporate a test: before priorities are set, each function separately records a documented constraint that could change the order of work."
