Feedback effects between similarity and social influence in online communities (2008, background): “Such awareness is fundamental to supporting distributed collaboration [8] and the eﬃcient operation of teams [4].”
Visualization of participation: Does it contribute to successful computer-supported collaborative learning? (2007, methodology): “The Statusbar, in the bottom of the screen, displays who is online, and which tools group members are currently using, and thus serves as a tool to raise students' workspace awareness (Gutwin & Greenberg, 2004).”
From Cognitive Load Theory to Collaborative Cognitive Load Theory (2018, background): “This group awareness and representational guidance reduces group members’ efforts to coordinate their actions, increases group efficiency, and reduces the chance of errors (Gutwin and Greenberg 2004) which in turn reduces unproductive transactive activities and, thus, their cognitive load.”
On Teams, Teamwork, and Team Performance: Discoveries and Developments (2008, methodology): “This includes the development of displays and tools to support shared situation awareness by, for example, providing individuals with representations of fellow team members’actions and intentions as well as by tracking and displaying complex task performance over time ( Gutwin & Greenberg, 2004 ).”
FASTDash: a visual dashboard for fostering awareness in software teams (2007, background): “Building off the work of [20, 27, 37] and others, we sought specifically to understand the types of information used by programmers to establish group awareness, the methods used to gain and exchange this information, how often this information was consulted, how often it changed, and how those meth”
Information sharing and decision-making in multidisciplinary crisis management teams (2018, background): “Although the importance of team information processing during complex and dynamic events has been widely acknowledged (Gutwin & Greenberg, 2004; Rico et al., 2008; Roth, Multer, & Raslear, 2006; Waller, Gupta, & Giambatista, 2004), research has focused mostly on constructs related to communication…”
