This paper describes a pilot test conducted as part of the ongoing research project. The performed pilot test describes the collaborative knowledge construction under two conditions: i) Collaborative knowledge construction in a traditional brainstorm setting ii) Collaborative knowledge construction in a proposed method (section number) described further in the paper. The pilot test focuses on m...

“The better the team mental model, the better the teamwork”, or so is said, in which better model refers to the extent to which the model is shared by the team members. This paper argues that according to circumstances, some components of that model are more relevant with respect to team performance than others. Circumstances change with the dynamics of the environment, the team composition and...

Background: A coordinated disaster response needs a well-organized structure and a locally adapted framework. In light of this, the COVID-19 pandemic offered an opportunity to renovate the response structure, which exhibited deficiencies during the pandemic. Iran shares the experience of an integrated response structure named the Reform Incidents Command System. It includes an integrated approa...

Intentions have been widely studied in AI, both in the context of decision-making within individual agents and in multiagent systems. Work on intentions in multi-agent systems has focused on joint intention models, which characterise the mental state of agents with a shared goal engaged in teamwork. In the absence of shared goals, however, intentions play another crucial role in multi-agent act...

Sociability and capability of shared mental states are hallmarks of the human species, and pursuing shared goals oftentimes requires coordinating both behaviour and mental states. Here we review recent work using indices of intersubject neural synchronisation for measuring similarity of mental states across individuals. We discuss the methodological advances and limitations in the analyses base...
