| Condorcet Jury Theorem - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
| Condorcet Jury Theorem: The Condorcet Jury Theorem posits that if each member of a jury has an independent probability of more than 50% of making the correct decision, then increasing the number of jurors will make the collective probability of a correct decision approach certainty. Conversely, if individual accuracy is below 50%, adding more jurors decreases the likelihood of a correct group decision. See also Decision theory, Decision-making processes, Jury theorem, Collective Intelligence._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
