Query: Local majority-with-inertia rule can explain global consensus dynamics
  in a network coordination game   We study how groups reach consensus by varying communication network
structure and individual incentives. In 342 networks of seven individuals,
single opinionated "leaders" can drive decision outcomes, but do not accelerate
consensus formation, whereas conflicting opinions slow consensus. While
networks with more links reach consensus faster, this advantage disappears
under conflict. Unopinionated individuals make choices consistent with a local
majority rule combined with "inertia" favouring their previous choice, while
opinionated individuals favour their preferred option but yield under high peer
or time pressure. Simulations show these individual rules can account for group
patterns, and allow rapid consensus while preventing deadlocks.
