Communication and Group Decision-Making

by Randy Y. Hirokawa, Marshall Scott Poole

The communication process is central to the study of group decision-making in two respects.

Combining previous research and advancing an integrative theoretical framework, the contributors examine general problem areas in the study of group interaction.
