Lower learning outcomes are observed for members of a group that do not participate in the group process, as well as loss of motivation for the other participating members [1] , [2] , [3] . One way to overcome this effect is by encouraging members of a group to participate in a more balanced manner. In the postexperiment questionnaire, the subjects were asked the question: “Do you think it is important for members of the group to participate in a more-or-less balanced manner?” We looked again at the effect of the table on the group members' ability to balance their participation, excluding participants in both conditions that answered “no” to this question (36 percent of the participants in the study). As we mentioned earlier, Reflect is not designed as a tool for enforcing group balance, but rather for supporting it by improving participant awareness.

ROLEX / Diane Johnson J» HAD GONE TO a meeting in Washington; I had begged off for once and was revelling in the quiet mornings at home, and the chance to work undisturbed on a novel I was writing. Then he telephoned to say he had forgotten to tell me that I would be getting a visit from someone named Yan Zhang, or Zhang Yan, who was coming to San Francisco, and could we put up this Yan Zhang for a couple of days?
