群體大小及人格特質對電子腦力激盪會議成效之影響

本研究希望了解在群體支援系統應用於腦力激盪會議時，不同群體大小及人格特質對會議過程及結果的影響。其中自變項包括了群體大小及人格特質兩項，依變項包含會議過程（滿意度、參與感）與會議結果（構想數量、構想品質）。本研究採用實驗室實驗法，由54位大學生在電子腦力激盪的環境下，分組討論特定議題，以收集研究數據。研究結果顯示，群體大小對會議結果沒有顯著影響，但小群體的會議過程參與感較中群體佳。此外，內外向人格特質對會議過程及會議結果均有顯著影響，其中外向人格特質者之會議過程滿意度及參與感顯著比內向人格特質者佳，但內向者的所產生之構想數量及構想品質則比外向者好。結果並顯示會議過程與會議結果間有正向相關。

The purpose of this research is to understand the effects of group size and personality on process and results in the group brainstorming supported environment. The two independent variables are group size and personality, and dependent variables are brainstorming process (satisfaction level, participation level), and results (idea amount, idea quality). The research method employed in this paper was laboratory experiment. Data was collected from fifty-four college students. Results showed that group size didn't have a significant effect on ebrainstorming results, but had a significant effect on e-brainstorming satisfaction level. Moreover, personality had a significant effect on both e-brainstorming process and results. People with extroversive personality held higher e-brainstorming process (including satisfaction and participation level) than people with introversive personality do. On the other hand, people with introversive personality generated more ideas as well as better quality. Results also indicated that e-brainstorming process was positively correlated with e-brainstorming results.
