| Abstract: | The objectives of this exploratory study are to refine the predictive validity the collective information sampling (CIS) model and test a group intervention technique designed to mitigate the common information sampling and recency biases. Analysis of the evidence from a laboratory and field experiment suggests that the refined CIS model accurately predicted the distribution of information items entered into group discussion. Results obtained from this exploratory research indicate that the refined CIS model can offer researchers a useful prediction tool and the Shared Cognition Awareness Training (SCAT) intervention technique presents a relatively straightforward means of invoking a more complete exchange of potentially valuable information during small-group discussion. |
