چکیده

In this paper, we present a formal model of group discussion dyanmics. An understanding of the face-to-face communications in a group discussion can provide new clues about how humans collaborate to accomplish complex tasks and how the collaboration protocols can be learned. It can also help us to evaluate and facilitate brainstorming sessions. We will discuss the following three findings about the dynamics: Meetings in different languages and on different topics could follow the same form of dynamics; The functional roles of the meeting participants could be better understood by inspecting not only their individual speaking and activity features but also their interactions with each other; The outcome of a meeting could be predicted by inspecting how its participants interact.

Collecting and analyzing qualitative data for system dynamics: methods and models

System dynamics depends heavily upon quantitative data to generate feedback models. Qualitative data and their analysis also have a central role to play at all levels of the modeling process. Although the classic literature on system dynamics strongly supports this argument, the protocols to incorporate this information during the modeling process are not detailed by the most influential author...
