Abstract

This study explores the actual phenomenon of social behavior in a virtual collaboration setting; that is, it looks at the perceived effectiveness of boundary objects‘ use for the activities of conveyance and convergence during collaboration. Therefore, a multiple-level case study in accordance with the inductive approach of Yin (2009) has been designed to explore the data derived from five cases, each consisting of a collaboration session and ex-post interviews.
