Rationale 1: If rational argument does not work, group members may resort to manipulation of the deviant member.
Rationale 2: When lack of compliance increases or slows the remainder of the group, attacks are likely to occur.
Rationale 3: Group members are not likely to do the work assigned to another member.
Rationale 4: This ignoring behavior is a final step of frustration with the noncompliant member.
Rationale 5: Patience and understanding will be extended only for a little while before the other group members result to strategies that are neither patient nor understanding.
