| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to identify factors that explain qualities of individuals’ arguments as well as those that account for changes in individuals’ cognitions in text-based computer-mediated communication. The findings are twofold. First, this study identified multiple determinants that affect the qualities of individuals’ arguments. Second, this study found that belief discrepancy (i.e., the difference in belief between the individual and the others) and the individual’s making arguments affect the degree to which his or her belief and confidence change (i.e., change in belief strength and confidence in the belief).
