''Disorsion Of Collective Consciousness - About Delusions And Hallucinations''
Collective consciousness disorder refers to a condition characterized by noticeable shifts in the prevailing ideas and actions of a society or a group of people. In this scenario, people exhibit atypical behavior, have diminished logical thinking and reasoning capacities, and conform to the prevailing attitudes, beliefs, or inclinations of society (Castano et al., 2002). Collective consciousness disorder arises as a result of the impact of social psychological elements. These elements include the anonymity afforded by being part of a crowd, the diminished feeling of personal accountability, social engagement, and adherence to group standards. In this scenario, people may exhibit less critical thinking and base their judgments not on their judgment, but rather on the societal norms and accepted ideas.
