They built this community so that the students from Jakarta having a forum to gather and share their views together.
According to Irving Janis (1972), high levelcohesivity in a group will cause groupthink.In case of groupthink, a member of the group will avoid personal opinion outside the zone.The views of in-group in interactions are often used as reference for judging out-group. Then often happens on the out-group stereotype.Based on the opinion of this theory, then researcher made this qualitative descriptive research, with the purpose of finding out about the phenomenon of groupthink in Jali-Jali.To analyze the problem, a case study used as a method analyze it, because by doing an interview the primer data can be obtained.
According to the result of this research, apparently cohesivity within Jali-Jali which causes groupthink. Thenfrom that groupthink syndrome, it will causes stereotypeto local students (out-group).
