task bubbles artifacts Shared Emotion and mutual focus of attention a comparative study of the microprocesses of group engagement
Organization Science, 2013Co-Authors: Anca Metiu, Nancy P RothbardAbstract:Based on a comparative field study of two software development projects, we use ethnographic methods of observation and interview to examine the question of how interdependent individuals develop and maintain mutual focus of attention on a Shared task, which we define as the group engagement process. Drawing on Randall Collins' interaction ritual theory, we identify how mutual focus of attention develops through the presence of a task bubble that focuses attention by creating barriers to outsiders and through the effective use of task-related artifacts. Shared Emotion both results from mutual focus of attention and reinforces it. Through our comparison between the two projects, we show that the group engagement process is enabled by factors at the individual individual engagement, interaction frequency and informality of interactions, and project compelling direction of the overall group levels. Our focus on group interaction episodes as the engine of the group engagement process illuminates what individuals do when they are performing the focal work of the group i.e., solving problems related to the task at hand and how they develop and sustain the mutual focus of attention that is required for making collective progress on the task itself. We also show the relationship between the group engagement process and effective problem solving.

Maternal Elaborative Language in Shared Emotion Talk with ODD Children: Relationship to Child Emotion Competencies
Child Psychiatry & Human Development, 2019Co-Authors: Annie Pate, Karen Salmon, Clare-ann Fortune, Richard O’kearneyAbstract:While maternal elaborative reminiscing has been found to be positively connected to children’s Emotion competencies, little is known about how the quality of maternal talk during mother–child talk about Shared Emotion events relates to Emotional competencies in children with disruptive behavioural disorders. In this study of 68 four to eight year-olds with oppositional defiant disorder and 34 children without a diagnosis there was no evidence of differences between mothers of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) children and mothers of non-ODD children in their use of Emotion descriptors and open-ended questions when discussing Emotion events with their child. After controlling for child age, gender, expressive verbal abilities and number of conversational turns, the more the mothers used these devices the poorer child’s ability to generate causes for Emotions and the lower the child’s Emotion regulation ability. The association for child Emotion regulation was moderated by child’s diagnostic status with a notable relationship for ODD mother–child dyads but not for the other group. The implications of the findings for the conceptualisation of mother–child talk and its relationship to the development of Emotion competencies in children with disruptive behavioural problems are discussed.
