Studies in the area of social facilitation have attempted to explain the changes in an individual's behavior in an isolated setting compared to when the individual is being observed. This study incorporates social facilitation as a basis for explaining differences in conflict for isolated and colocated groups. Although colocated groups experienced higher levels of objective conflict, isolated groups perceived higher levels of conflict. Gender and group process also had a significant effect upon objective conflict. Groups resolving conflict through open discussion achieved higher levels of post-meeting consensus. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 57-03, Section: A, page: 1208. / Major Professor: Joey F.
