Consensus, in contrast, implies agreement and collaboration after open discussion and debate; incohesiveness would imply a lack of mutual support or shared goals; conflict aversion would emphasize avoidance of disagreement or tension, which may not necessarily result in conformity; majority-itis is not a recognized term in social psychology.
