Which of the following statements is most accurate?

A) Cohesive groups are superior to noncohesive groups.
B) Cohesive groups invariably outperform noncohesive groups.
C) Members of cohesive groups are more satisfied with membership,but they are more likely to leave the group.
D) Cohesive groups avoid the conflict stage of group development.
E) Cohesiveness intensifies group processes.

Cohesiveness intensifies group processes, meaning that as a group becomes more cohesive, its members become more committed, involved, and invested in the group's goals and outcomes. This can lead to more effective communication, collaboration, and problem-solving within the group. However, it is not necessarily true that cohesive groups are always superior to noncohesive groups, and members of cohesive groups may experience both greater satisfaction and greater potential for turnover due to increased attachment to the group. Additionally, cohesive groups still encounter conflict as part of the group development process.
