44. Assessing collaboration quality cognitive, social, and affective processes process gain: assembly bonus, synergy effects process loss: motivation and coordination problems group size & composition task type technical & informational resources goal structure Group learning, e.g. transactive memory, shared mental models Individual learning - domain knowledge and problem-solving skills - collaboration skills - technical skills Interpersonal & motivational outcomes, e.g. trust, liking, self-efficacy, group-efficacy institutional context Input
