I seem to recall the Wason Selection Task works pretty well in group scenarios. Unlike the Triplets Game (2-4-6) it just has a single question that you can field to a room, rather than multiple iterations that are best dealt with by a single participant.
Yup, that was my second thought. I'm not sure it exactly demonstrates confirmation bias though.
People tend to check the cards that corroborate the rule they're testing, rather than the ones that challenge it. That doesn't seem to demonstrate confirmation bias any less than the triplets game.
