Abstract
ARTICLE IN PRESS*the impact of social comparison process on productivity and creativity in a web-based context of asynchronous electronic brainstorming. Social comparison was manipulated with a feed-back informing group members of their respective contributions on the electronic brain-storming task through a shared table regularly updated by a facilitator. In another group, although participants had the possibility to identify each contribution within the newsgroup, they did not receive any feedback in a shared table. Results showed that both group pro-ductivity and group creativity are better in the social comparison feedback condition than in the other condition. It appears that social comparison process has a positive impact on pro-ductivity and creativity in a web-based context of asynchronous electronic brainstorming, but only when participants have access to a shared table facilitating the comparison among group members. This finding provides some useful recommendations for learning facilitators to improve productivity and creativity in the context of computer-supported collaborative learning over the Internet. It also invites to future innovative technological developments to improve participation in online groups.Improving productivity and creativity in online groups through social comparison process: New evidence for asynchronous electronic brainstorming
