Resumen:
Collaboration is essential for individuals working in groups to achieve a common goal. The understanding of thecollaborative profile of each member of a team is extremely useful to understand and predict his/her performance in futureteamwork. Users can demonstrate their collaborative skills in many digital platforms. Among them, video games enable tocapture the players‟ behavior by the direct observation of their actions, while engaging them in a pleasant activity. In thiswork, we propose an approach for building collaborative profiles of a group of people working together towards acommon goal, using an online game as a shared environment and a well-known theory about groups‟ dynamics:SYMLOG. This profile can be useful to know which features each member should train to improve his/her collaborativeskills and to predict the performance of the group. We validate our approach with 98 players to evaluate the similaritybetween the profiles generated with our approach and the profiles derived from the SYMLOG questionnaire, which is theusual tool used with this theory
