From the Publisher: With a focus on the individual group member, The Fundamentals of Small Group Communication encourages readers to reflect on how their communication behaviors and practices contribute to their current small group experiences. In this easy to read text, authors Scott A. Myers and Carolyn M. Anderson introduce students to the fundamental issues faced by all small groups, such as socialization, development, ethics, and diversity, and the procedures utilized by effective small groups. The book is organized around three overarching themes-characteristics of small group communication and the individual group member, the group task, and group member relationships. Each chapter opens with a case study and includes an "Ethically Speaking" box that allows readers to reflect on how ethics is central to the small group communication process. It is intended for undergraduate courses that introduce students to the basic fundamentals of small group communication.

"The common practice of expressing group performance differences in standard deviation units conveys useful but limited information. Reporting the percentage of the time a member from a lower performing group is expected to outperform a member from a higher performing group would enhance understanding of the magnitude of the difference. Furthermore, the proposed percentage metric is able to easily deal with group variability differences in addition to mean group differences. An analytical approach was used to convert group performance differences from standard deviation units to the proposed metric. The slope of the relationship between the two metrics is nearly linear through a one standard deviation group performance difference. Tables are presented that can be used to convert group performance differences in standard deviation units to the new metric."--DTIC.

Communicating in Groups offers a concise, step-by-step introduction to the theory and practice of small group communication and teaches students to develop and apply critical thinking skills in group problem-solving situations. The book continues to synthesize current small group theory and research while presenting the material in a practical and accessible manner for students interested in the dynamics of small group communication. The eighth edition marks the first time two central chapters on communication are integrated into one chapter, capturing key principles of both verbal and non-verbal small group behavior within a new definition of communication. With the firm belief that group participation can be an uplifting, energizing experience, authors Kathy Adams and Gloria Galanes give students the tools they will need to achieve this outcome. Research and theory are presented with a focus on what is important to students—understanding their group experiences and making them effective communicators.
