Virtual interdisciplinary teams, using computer-mediated communication, face similar group dynamics challenges as in-person teams. This study offers guidelines for effective virtual collaboration and communication strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Communication Studies
  • Organizational Psychology
  • Information Science

Background:

  • Virtual interdisciplinary teams leverage text-based, asynchronous, computer-mediated communication.
  • Understanding group dynamics is crucial for effective collaboration in virtual settings.
  • Interactive technologies shape communication patterns within interdisciplinary teams.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze virtual interdisciplinary team interactions through the lens of group dynamics.
  • To provide insights into collaborative interdisciplinary communication within interactive technologies.
  • To offer guidelines for facilitating computer-mediated communication in virtual teams.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of text-based, asynchronous, computer-mediated communications over 5 years.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Application of group dynamics theory to virtual team interactions.
  • Epistemological examination of interdisciplinary teaming.

    • Main Results:

    • Virtual teams exhibit the same developmental stages (forming, storming, norming, performing, transforming) as face-to-face teams.
    • Despite technological nuances, the core content of interdisciplinary team communication remains consistent.
    • Interactive technologies necessitate adaptive language patterns for effective virtual collaboration.

    Conclusions:

    • Virtual interdisciplinary teams require strategies that acknowledge and address standard group developmental processes.
    • Effective computer-mediated communication is essential for successful virtual team performance.
    • Guidelines are provided to enhance interdisciplinary team collaboration in virtual environments.
