A Re-Analysis of the Collaborative Knowledge Transcripts from a Noncombatant Evacuation Operation Scenario: The Next Phase in the Evolution of a Team Collaboration Model

Abstract

The goal of this research was to validate the existence and facilitate a better understanding of the stages and underlying macrocognitive processes of team collaboration. Recently, Letsky, Warner, Fiore, Rosen, and Salas (2007) proposed a revised taxonomy and set of definitions for the underlying macrocognitive major processes and subprocesses of team collaboration. For the present research, communication transcripts collected during Warner, Letsky, and Cowen's (2005) second experiment were recoded using the new taxonomy and definitions (Letsky, et al., 2007) and then re-analyzed. The results enabled an examination of the collaboration stages, macrocognitive major processes, and macrocognitive subprocesses in terms of: 1) their consistency and contribution in the team collaboration process, and 2) the next phase in the evolution of a conceptual model of team collaboration.
