参与是团队成功的重要因素。我们提出了一个新的参与平等的度量标准，提供了一个无偏的估计，在不同规模的群体，并在那些随着时间的推移而变化的大小。使用11小时的转录话语从非正式的，流体，共定位的会议，我们比较了这个指标的协会与编码的平等参与和标准差。虽然编码参与和我们的指标具有相似的发现模式，但标准差具有稍微不同的模式，这表明它可能导致对流体团队的不正确评估。探索性分析表明，与混合年龄/状态组相比，年轻的教师群体有更平等的参与，并与更多的主导参与的负面影响词的存在。未来的研究可以利用这一新的度量进一步理论上的团队过程中，面对面和分布式设置。
Participation is an important factor in team success. We propose a new metric of participation equality that provides an unbiased estimate across groups of different sizes and across those that change size over time. Using 11 h of transcribed utterances from informal, fluid, colocated workgroup meetings, we compared the associations of this metric with coded equality of participation and standard deviation. While coded participation and our metric had similar patterns of findings, standard deviation had a somewhat different pattern, suggesting that it might lead to incorrect assessments with fluid teams. Exploratory analyses suggest that, as compared with mixed-age/status groups, groups of younger faculty had more equal participation and that the presence of negative affect words was associated with more dominated participation. Future research can take advantage of this new metric to further theory on team processes in both face-to-face and distributed settings.
