I feel articles 2,3,4 and possibly 5 are good candidates for the Friday's discussion. The reason article 2 seems better than 1 is that it also introduces us to CST, which provides an important research orientation. Articles 3 and 4 are new perspectives in their areas and 4 deals with research that may also be of interest to other faculty members and PhD students as well. Article 5 is also good, but lets see what Irfan has to suggest first.
ReplyDeleteWell it looks that # 2 might provide us with basic concepts and theories and hence might be a good choice.
ReplyDeleteA couple of observations: 1) I see only MISQ articles and 2) only 2 are recent ones while most of the others are 10 or more years old!
I suggest the following Articles:
ReplyDeleteBoth are from JMIS - ISM was not easily search-able and is now hosted at INFORMAWORLD.

1. Exploring the Core Concepts of Media Richness Theory: The Impact of Cue Multiplicity and Feedback Immediacy on Decision Quality.

ABSTRACT: Employing media richness theory, a model is developed to open the black box surrounding the impact of computer-mediated communication systems on decision quality. The effects on decision quality of two important communication system factors, cue multiplicity and feedback immediacy, are examined in light of three important mediating constructs: social perceptions, message clarity, and ability to evaluate others. A laboratory experiment examining two tasks and employing face-to-face, electronic meeting, electronic conferencing, and electronic mail communication systems is used to assess the model’s validity. Results provide consistent support for the research model as well as media richness theory.
Richer media facilitate social perceptions (total socio-emotional communication and positive socio-emotional climate) and perceived ability to evaluate others’ deception and expertise. Leaner media (electronic mail and electronic conferencing) facilitate communication clarity when participants have less task-relevant knowledge. The impacts of these mediating constructs on decision quality were found to depend on the levels of participant expertise and deception. In general, it was found that richer media can have significantly positive impacts on decision quality when participants’ task-relevant knowledge is high. Moreover, effects of participant deception can be mitigated by employing richer media.
2. Investigating Coherence and Multimedia Effects of a Technology-Mediated Collaborative Environment

ABSTRACT:
This paper presents an experiment investigating the impact of context-relevant graphics on a knowledge sharing task in a technology-mediated collaborative (TMC) environment. The Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning (CTML) is introduced as the theoretical base for the hypotheses. The principles of multimedia and coherence from the CTML are used to hypothesize about the effectiveness of graphics embedded in TMC environments. Comprehension and transfer are used as dependent measures. Three TMC interface treatments were considered (no graphic, irrelevant graphic, relevant graphic). Hierarchical analysis of covariance (HANCOVA) comparing TMC treatments indicated no significant differences in comprehension; however, transfer scores for the TMC teams with context-relevant graphics were significantly higher than the other TMC teams. Although adding graphics to the collaborative interface improves the level of understanding developed within a group, the graphics need to be context relevant to be effective. These findings support the coherence and multimedia principles and provide guidance for designers of TMC environments.
