Effective use of available information is a problem that plagues group decision-making tasks. Groups heavily favor shared information, or information known to all group members, which can lead to incorrect decisions and inferior alternatives. However, groups may be less prone to overlooking unshared information if they have a more open and mindful orientation. The present research investigates whether groups view unshared information as more important and incorporate it more during group discussion after a brief guided meditation. Study 1 showed that participants in the mindfulness condition did not view unshared information as more valid or more important. Mindfulness practice also did not improve how members perceived preference inconsistent information. Study 2 replicated the results from Study 1. Study 2 also showed that groups in the mindfulness condition did not mention or repeat a larger proportion of unshared than groups in the control. Other results support an ownership bias and also a bias for preference inconsistent information. Future directions of and limitations of the applicability of mindfulness are discussed. Existing research is beginning to call into question the applicability of mindfulness across a variety of contexts. The present studies suggest that in groups there may be other effects significantly stronger than mindfulness manipulation, silencing any effect that the meditative practice may have.
