Abstract

In this article, I consolidate the work of prior frameworks for group support systems and present the results of that consolidation using the major factors of contextual, intervening, adaptation, and outcome variables. The end result is a comprehensive list of factors that have been studied or suggested, organized into the preceding 4 categories. The model proposed offers a control system type interpretation of the 4 factor dimensions.
