| Description: |
What are the effects of training groups to speak in specific ways? More specifically, does speech using a given pronoun, reflective of either an individual (I) or collective (we) perspective effect group cohesiveness, efficiency at coming to decisions, or accuracy in representing their peer group? I have designed a series of studies to gather information about the specific components of language involved in group interactions and test various real-world applications.
