Investigating contributors to performance evaluations in small groups: Task competence, speaking time, physical expressiveness, and likability.

This study compared the impacts of actual individual task competence, speaking time and physical expressiveness as indicators of verbal and nonverbal communication behavior, and likability on performance evaluations in a group task. 164 participants who were assigned to 41 groups first solved a prob...
