My research explored the relationship dynamics of personal identity and intersubjective, group dialogue using avatars in collaborative virtual environments (CVEs). Two proposed constructs, virtual-physioception and virtual intersubjective presencing formed the basis of an online survey exploring group, avatar, and individual experiences. Measures were adapted from Andrew Stricker of The Air University (United States Air Force) and the US National Cancer Institute's Team Science Toolkit. The constructs were framed around an inferred discipline of presencing built upon research performed by Peter Senge and Otto Scharmer of MIT. Correlations were found between avatar embodiment and interdisciplinary professional/personal development practices suggesting the collaborative potential of CVEs to support both constructs. Resultant qualitative themes included levels of avatar embodiment culminating in a state of transdisciplinarity based upon self-leadership practices. Heuristics for collaboration using embodied avatars were created based on findings of mixed, quantitative and qualitative analysis and literature review. Future research is proposed into virtual learning organization communities as blended, virtual-physical lifestyles reliant upon strengthsbased practices. Future collaborative research was recommended connecting CVE use with simulators and experimentation with open virtual conferences as platforms for community engagement in support of collective intelligence for mass collaboration and crowdsourced, citizen science.
