本文认为，可以有“规范”和“非规范，只是事实的群体信念。前者涉及整个社会群体，而后者只涉及个人信念在群体中的分布。本文发展了一个详细的理论，称为立场帐户的群体信念，解释规范，涉及群体的群体信念。在这种方法中，规范性群体信念的特征在于，群体成员或其代表在正确的位置和任务中共同接受观点，并在某种意义上为所有成员创造了接受（并继续接受）所讨论观点的群体承诺。此外，“聚合”帐户的群体信念被认为是在文件中，特别是“共享我们的信念”的方法。这样的综合账户声称只说明了事实群体的信念。
It is argued in this paper that there can be both ‘normative’ and ‘nonnormative, merely factual group beliefs. The former involve the whole social group in question, while the latter only relate to the distributions of personal beliefs within the group. The paper develops a detailed theory, called the positional account of group beliefs, to explicate normative, group-involving group beliefs. Normative group beliefs are characterized within this approach in terms of joint acceptances of views by the group members — or their representatives — acting in their right positions and tasks, and in a sense creating group commitments for all the members to accept (and keep accepting) the view in question. Also ‘aggregate’ accounts of group belief are considered in the paper, especially the ‘shared we-belief’ approach. Such aggregate accounts purport to account for merely factual group beliefs.
