Levels of Communication II: Organizational, Public, and Group Dynamics01:27

Levels of Communication II: Organizational, Public, and Group Dynamics

1.6K
Effective communication is the foundation of a good organization. Communication is the lifeblood of an organization that connects the group with messages. In an organization, communication occurs in upward, downward, and horizontal lines. Downward communication travels from the administrative and senior levels to the staff through official channels such as manuals, rules and regulations, and organizational charts. Staff members initiate upward communication, which is addressed to executives and...

Social Facilitation

Not all intergroup interactions lead to negative outcomes. Sometimes, being in a group situation can improve performance. Social facilitation occurs when an individual performs better when an audience is watching than when the individual performs the behavior alone. This typically occurs when people are performing a task for which they are skilled.

Elaborative Rehearsals

Elaborative rehearsal is a crucial cognitive strategy that strengthens information encoding in long-term memory by making meaningful connections between new data and pre-existing knowledge. This approach contrasts with maintenance rehearsal, which involves simple repetition without delving into the significance of the information. While maintenance rehearsal might temporarily keep information active in short-term memory, it is less effective for long-term retention.

Relationship Formation

What do you think is the single most influential factor in determining with whom you become friends and whom you form romantic relationships? You might be surprised to learn that the answer is simple: the people with whom you have the most contact. This most important factor is proximity. You are more likely to be friends with people you have regular contact with. For example, there are decades of research that shows that you are more likely to become friends with people who live in your dorm,...

Framing Effects03:26

Framing Effects

7.3K
Information is everywhere and its presentation—such as how and when items are presented—can impact our perceptions and decisions surrounding the info. This broad concept umbrellas framing effects—influences that occur due to the way information is framed in its appearance, whether it’s purely the order or the specific wording of a message. Let’s take a look at numerous ways in which two versions of something can objectively say the same thing, yet we respond in...

Deindividuation00:57

Deindividuation

26.0K
Deindividuation is a form of social influence on an individual’s behavior such that the individual engages in unusual or non-normal behavior while in a group setting. Why? Because in these group settings, the individual no longer sees themselves as an individual anymore, disinhibiting their behavior and personal restraint.

Area of Science:

  • Organizational Studies
  • Sociology of Work
  • Affect Theory

Background:

  • Collaborative organizing often fails due to its intense but unsustainable nature.
  • The role of events and affective atmospheres in sustaining collaboration is often overlooked.
  • Existing models may not fully capture the dynamic emotional processes in collaborative networks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how events and affective atmospheres sustain collaborative work.
  • To introduce and define 'polyrhythmic affectivity' within polycentric governance.
  • To understand the mechanisms that maintain emergent order in collaborative organizing.

Main Methods:

  • Two ethnographic field studies were conducted.
  • One study focused on an open-source software community.
  • The other study examined a network of impact entrepreneurs.

Main Results:

  • Introduced 'polyrhythmic affectivity' as central to polycentric governance.
  • Identified three key affective intensities: togetherness, dissonance, and mutuality.
  • Demonstrated how the interplay of these affects creates enduring order.

Conclusions:

  • Collaborative organizing can be sustained through 'affective commoning'.
  • Affective atmospheres act as shared creative resources.
  • Polyrhythmic affectivity stabilizes collective motivational forces in collaborative ventures.
