q3 i? TDC values fluctuated highly early in sessions then decreased and stabilized, indicating divergent then convergent discussion. → Ohsaki 2026

q3 · i? · associational · r1

tSSNA analysis of TDC over time for three teams during 30-minute prototyping sessions. "participants discussed their ideas divergently at first" then "discussion converged" toward session end. All teams continued changing ideas with limited words toward the end.

"participants discussed their ideas divergently at first—as indicated by highly fluctuating TDC scores in the first phase—and then discussion converged—as indicated by lower and less variable TDC scores—toward the end of the sessions."
