Abstract

Using a collaborative planning environment, collaborative processes and team planning were studied during a non-combative evacuation scenario. Five-person teams were assigned to one of three conditions: role switching (RS), location switching (LS) and control. Based on plan scoring, team process scoring and individual knowledge measures, we found evidence that both RS and LS teams created better plans than control teams, and that this was not reflected in the amount of shared knowledge between team members. These results provide evidence for the Interactive Team Cognition theory of collaboration.
