This paper looks to speak to (more or less) the idea that, in brainstorming sessions, one's ideas are accepted more readily if one is nice, which is *not* a belief that I actually have*. But if I did, and if I were to read this paper and believe its evidence to be sound, I believe I would consider changing my mind! But since it doesn't (seem to) actually contradict anything that I believe at present, it's maybe not the ideal example :).
Jeremy * This also seems to encode the presupposition that a goal of an individual during a brainstorming session is to have their own ideas prevail, rather than the most useful ones.
