How virtual are we? Measuring virtuality and understanding its impact in a global organization (2005, background): “…three global virtual teams, Maznevski and Chudoba (2000) illustrated the importance of establishing a predictable rhythm of communication exchanges, which becomes increasingly challenging when team membership encompasses different time zones (see also Kanawattanachai &Yoo, 2002; Yoo & Alavi, 2004).”
Nature of virtual teams: a summary of their advantages and disadvantages (2008, background): “More importantly, recognition should be a public acknowledgement (Yoo and Alavi, 2004).”
The Emergence of Governance in an Open Source Community (2007, background): “Three recent studies of the emergence of informal leaders in online communities found that leaders post more messages than non-leaders (Cassell et al, 2005; Misiolek and Heckman, 2005; Yoo and Alavi, 2004).”
Team adaptation in context: An integrated conceptual model and meta-analytic review (2017, background): “As another example, we excluded general work on virtual teams, such as work examining virtual team environments that did not involve a change (e.g., Hambley, O’Neill, & Kline, 2007; Yoo & Alavi, 2004).”
Content or Community? A Digital Business Strategy for Content Providers in the Social Age (2013, background): “Leaders of online communities have been shown to contribute the largest number of comments and to be the most active (Cassell et al. 2006; Yoo and Alavi 2004).”
Avatars, People, and Virtual Worlds: Foundations for Research in Metaverses (2009, unknown): “In the absence of leaders, the idea of self-directed teams has emerged (Jarvenpaa et al., 1998, Jarvenpaa and Leidner, 1999, Piccoli et al., 2004, Yoo and Alavi, 2004).”
Dimensions of leadership and social influence in online communities (2010, background): “There are similar findings online; several studies in computer-mediated communication show that group members often perceive leaders based on the volume of their communication and follow accordingly (Misiolek & Heckman, 2005; Sudweeks & Simoff, 2005; Yoo & Alavi, 2004).”
