Knowledge is commonly socially constructed, through collaborative efforts towards shared objectives or by dialogues and challenges brought about by different persons' perspectives.

Hunter, Arwen E. and Pierce, Linda G. (2010): Information Sharing in Distributed Teams. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 54th Annual Meeting 2010. pp. 522-526.

Better understanding of information sharing in complex, distributed environments is critical for enhancing distributed team operations. This paper examines information sharing among distributed team members in an applied Army setting, with focus placed on precursors to information sharing, the importance of perceived interdependence and trustworthiness of distributed teammates for information sharing, and the effect of information sharing in these complex environments on team states and processes such as the building of trust and team cohesion. Importance is placed on better understanding the processes affecting information sharing in a distributed environment, influencing both research and practice involving distributed team collaboration.

A recent and dramatic increase in the use of automation has not yielded comparable improvements in performance. Researchers have found human operators often underutilize (disuse) and overly rely on (misuse) automated aids (Parasuraman and Riley, 1997). Three studies were performed with Cameron University students to explore the relationship among automation reliability, trust, and reliance. With the assistance of an automated decision aid, participants viewed slides of Fort Sill terrain and indicated the presence or absence of a camouflaged soldier. Results from the three studies indicate that trust is an important factor in understanding automation reliance decisions. Participants initially considered the automated decision aid trustworthy and reliable. After observing the automated aid make errors, participants distrusted even reliable aids, unless an explanation was provided regarding why the aid might err. Knowing why the aid might err increased trust in the decision aid and increased automation reliance, even when the trust was unwarranted. Our studies suggest a need for future research focused on understanding automation use, examining individual differences in automation reliance, and developing valid and reliable self-report measures of trust in automation.
