Abstract

The role of task is a critical issue of experimental IS research on group communication and decision making. This manuscript attempts to assemble a collective resource for informing IS group researchers about some of the important issues related to tasks. It includes a brief essay describing six critical factors in task selection and design. Two appendices summarize some important task concepts from the group literature and present a library of existing research tasks.
