- Abstract
- Drawing on the input-process-output model (Hackman 1987), this study
attempts to integrate two different perspectives on group-level cognition:
a compositional and a group-as-a-whole perspective. A compositional
perspective focuses on individual member cognitions and then examines
how cognitions of group members combine to produce group-level cognition.
In contrast, a group-as-a-whole perspective views group cognition as an
emergent quality resulting from group interactions. Using the concept
of cognitive complexity, this study explores some aspects of group
compositions as a cause for an emergent property of group cognitive
complexity, which in turn affects group decision-making effectiveness. This
study introduces a causal mapping combined with a group discussion
method as a useful tool to measure group cognitive complexity as a
collective phenomenon.
