ABSTRACT	A fundamental concept that underlies the phenomena dealt with by decision scientists and Group Decision Support System designers is that of "mental model" --- the decision maker's beliefs about how the world is, how it works, and how it should be. This paper examines this concept, and also that of "cross understanding" --- the understanding that individual group members have about the mental models of other individual group members. Our analysis indicates that cross understanding has important consequences for the quality of group decisions. The paper concludes with suggestions for improving decision group performance by using information technology to exploit cross understanding.	user correction - Legacy Corrections
