Kamei, Koji, Fujita, Kunihiko, Jettmar, Eva, Yoshida, Sen and Kuwabara, Kazuhiro (2002): Effectiveness of spatial representation in the formation of network communities: experimental study on community organizer. In Interacting with Computers, 14 (6) pp. 739-759

“In this paper, we present and discuss Community Organizer, a system designed to support network communities. The main characteristic of Community Organizer is the use of spatial representations for the relationships among community members including the communications exchanged among these members. These spatial representations reflect the degree of closeness of interests and concerns among the members, and are intended to provide users with clues on how to form network communities. In order to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed spatial representations, we conducted experiments with two different versions of the software. One version offered meaningful spatial representations while the other version did not. The subjects who used the former software version felt a greater sense of 'community', enjoyed using the software more, and actively used it longer than the subjects using the latter software version (control condition). These results indicated that the proposed spatial representations are effective in supporting network community formation.”
