title = "Real-Time Feedback Based on Nonverbal Behaviour to Enhance Social Dynamics in Small Group Meetings",
abstract = "We present a service providing real-time feedback to participants of small group meetings on the social dynamics of the meeting. The service visualizes non-verbal properties of people{\textquoteright}s behaviour that are relevant to the social dynamics: speaking time and gaze behaviour. The service was evaluated in two studies, in order to test whether the feedback influences the participants{\textquoteright} visual attention and speaking time and enhances the satisfaction with the group interaction process. In a qualitative evaluation it was found thatgroups in general perceive the social feedback during the meeting as a useful and positive experience, which makes them aware of their group dynamics. In a second study, aiming at a more quantitative analysis, we obtained preliminary evidence that the feedback service affected participants{\textquoteright} behaviour and resulted in more balanced participation and gaze behaviour. We conclude that services providing automatic feedback about relatively low-level behavioural characteristics can enable groups to adjust the social dynamics in group meetings.",
