“…Importantly, findings from this study are based on longitudinal observations of groups performing meaningful tasks, couched at both the individual and group levels. Consequently, this research sheds light on important features of virtual groups (Ahuja & Galvin, 2003) operating within the present-day media environment at a time when such understanding is crucial for those interested in contemporary group processes (Fulk & Collins-Jarvis, 2001;Jackson, Poole, & Kuhn, 2003;Kline & McGrath, 1999).…”

-The trust literature emphasizes trust in automation, influence in our daily lives. Those who are skeptical of this thus neglecting the interpersonal aspects of how distributed assertion are encouraged to work a day without email, chat personnel develop trust. Interpersonal trust represents the rooms, blogs, wikis, conferencing software, and or file willingness of individuals to accept vulnerabilities from the exchange systems! Yet despite their omnipresent presence in actions of others. Vulnerability is critical aspect of trust our daily lives, researchers still have a great deal to understand research, yet few studies have manipulated vulnerability.

A fundamental attribute of the Network Centric Warfare (NCW) concept is the ability to for IT in the defense sector [6]. Software designers tend to leverage advanced information systems to facilitate self-focus purely on technology solutions without considering the synchronization and enhanced battlespace awareness among broader social and organizational context within which users distributed forces (see [1] for a review). Thus, computer-of collaborative tools must operate. Researchers have outlined mediated interactions will be the drivers for collaboration three essential facets of collaboration: technology, social among future soldiers. This is evidenced by the ubiquity of culture, and knowledge [7], thus suggesting that the collaborative tools in the military and their inextricable collaboration domain ...

“…The technology tools that are used in promoting collaboration are typically called 'Groupware' systems. Groupware systems are a burgeoning area for organizations (Kline & McGrath, 1999) as well as the military (Seymour & Cowen, 2006). However, many collaborative tools have not lived up to their expectations, perhaps due to the lack of convergence among software designers, researchers, and users in the collaboration domain (Briggs, 2006).…”

“…The collaboration literature is in need of better theoretical models to guide the development of novel collaborative tools (Briggs, 2006;Kline & McGrath, 1999). This need should resonate with military researchers given the pervading nature of net-centric and distributed operations that represent the future of the military.…”

Public reporting burden for the collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Washington Headquarters Services, Directorate for Information Operations and Reports, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite 1204, Arlington VA 22202-4302. Respondents should be aware that notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person shall be subject to a penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information if it does not display a currently valid OMB control number. Interpersonal trust represents the willingness of individuals to accept vulnerabilities from the actions of others (Mayer, et al., 1995). Vulnerability is critical aspect of trust research, yet few studies have manipulated vulnerability. Non-verbal cues may have an influence on the trust process (Wicks, et al., 1999), suggesting that features of collaborative tools may influence how individuals build trust. The present study will implement a 3x4 mixed design. Participants will select a convoy route based on: 1) graphical displays of enemy zones and historical Improvised Explosive Device (IED) occurrences; 2) route parameters (e.g., fuel required); and 3) information from a local expert. Vulnerability will be manipulated by altering the frequency of IEDs and the location of 'red forces' to create low, moderate, and high vulnerability conditions (within subjects factor). Information from local experts will be presented via one of four conditions: 1) audio/video with low emotion; 2) audio/video with high emotion; and 3) audio only; and 4) chat (between subjects factor). Findings from this research will support the development of new collaborative tools for the C2 domain.
