Impression Management Techniques III: Aligning Actions

Aligning actions are communicative strategies individuals employ to maintain social harmony and preserve personal identity in the face of potential disruptions to social norms. These actions are particularly important in managing social impressions when one's behavior might be seen as inappropriate, incompetent, or morally questionable.Types of Aligning ActionsThe three principal types of aligning actions are disclaimers, accounts, and apologies.DisclaimersDisclaimers are preventive; they are...

Impression Management Techniques IV: Altercasting

Altercasting is a strategic communication technique in which an individual imposes a specific identity or social role onto another person to influence their behavior and shape the interaction. By presuming a role—such as “responsible leader” or “patient person”—altercasting encourages the target to conform to that identity, often aligning their behavior with the expectations associated with the role. The power of this tactic lies in its subtlety; once a role is assigned, it becomes socially...

Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences
  • Social Sciences
  • Education

Background:

  • The Nominal Group Technique (NGT) is a valuable tool for group decision-making and idea generation.
  • Traditional NGT application requires in-person interaction, limiting its use in remote or virtual settings.
  • Adapting established methodologies for virtual environments is crucial for modern research and collaboration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the adaptations of the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) for successful implementation in a virtual format.
  • To ensure all essential components of the original NGT are preserved during virtual adaptation.
  • To present a practical guide for researchers seeking to conduct virtual NGT sessions.

Main Methods:

  • An experience report detailing the modifications made to the original NGT.
  • Utilized Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and readily available, low-cost digital tools.
  • Adapted each of the four stages of the NGT for a fully virtual environment.

Main Results:

  • The virtual NGT successfully facilitated idea generation, voting, and final participant approval.
  • Participants reported no significant difficulties in using the provided virtual tools.
  • Post-session evaluations indicated participant satisfaction with the virtual NGT process and tools.

Conclusions:

  • The adapted virtual NGT is an effective method for generating a substantial number of ideas and fostering consensus.
  • This modified technique offers a viable alternative for group decision-making in virtual settings.
  • The adapted NGT is suitable for researchers in resource-comparable contexts, such as Brazil.
