Abstract
Scientific inquiry into small group processes requires a pantheoretical organization of the facts discovered. A multidimensional system is proposed, based on commonly used measurement parameters in group research. Four dimensions describing the who, what, how, and when, ofprocess measurement are combined and crossed as a first step toward an orderly classification system. Implications for multidimensional process measurement are discussed.Keywords
