Abstract:

The background information for a study of teleconferencing may be listed under three headings 1 teleconferencing per se, 2 traditional face-to-face conferences, and 3 social and psychological processes said to occur in conferences. Each of these three categories is explored briefly in order to assess the value of a more thorough search. Findings and recommendations are given under each heading. Author
