VIVAS, Jorge  y  RICCI, Lila. Shared beliefs matrix and sociocognitive centrality when making decision mediated by channel. Psic [online]. 2006, vol.7, n.2, pp. 01-10. ISSN 1676-7314.

The social influence generating the consensus using the notion of initial and final sociocognitive centrality was analyzed. The greater the information one member shares with the others, the greater is his/her sociocognitive centrality. A multiple task decision was used and it was verified the potentiality of the concept in computer mediated communication environments. The results show evidence that supports the hypothesis that members with greater sociocognitive centrality influences more in the group achievements also when varying the communication channel. The final sociocognitive centrality seems to depend on the initial centrality and on the discrepancies of members who had experienced the consensus reached by the group.
