Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This study investigated the influence of interpersonal behaviors and intergroup dynamics on evaluations and affective communication in virtual groups. Participants (N = 256) were assigned to 64 four-person groups and interacted through synchronous computer chat. Distinct sub-group pairings instantiated in-group and out-group identifications. One confederate in each group was instructed to engage in interpersonally likeable or dislikeable behavior. Although the identification manipulation did affect ingroup/outgroup identification, analysis revealed that confederates acting likeably were more attractive than those acting dislikeably regardless of their intergroup membership. Results suggest that interpersonal behavior is a better predictor of relational communication and evaluative process in virtual groups than intergroup dynamics.
