How Does “Collaboration” Occur At All? Remarks On Epistemological Issues Related To Understanding / Working With ‘The Other’, Don Faust, Judith Puncochar Jul 2015

How Does “Collaboration” Occur At All? Remarks On Epistemological Issues Related To Understanding / Working With ‘The Other’, Don Faust, Judith Puncochar

Conference Presentations

Collaboration, if to occur successfully at all, needs to be based on careful representation and communication of each stakeholder’s knowledge. In this paper, we investigate, from a foundational logical and epistemological point of view, how such representation and communication can be accomplished. What we tentatively conclude, based on a careful delineation of the logical technicalities necessarily involved in such representation and communication, is that a complete representation is not possible. This inference, if correct, is of course rather discouraging with regard to what we can hope to achieve in the knowledge representations that we bring to our collaborations. We suggest …

Examining Implicit Person Theory And Feedback Environment In Undergraduate Research Relationships, Ian Katz Jan 2015

Examining Implicit Person Theory And Feedback Environment In Undergraduate Research Relationships, Ian Katz

Undergraduate Honors Thesis Collection

This study examined the relationship between implicit person theory, our thoughts about malleability of human traits, and the trust students have for their faculty research advisor. There was no relationship between implicit person theory and trust. The faculty feedback environment was also captured to understand the day-to-day interactions of the student and their faculty research advisor. There was a significant relationship between a positive feedback environment and students' intention to continue collaboration with the faculty member.
