The importance to examine the types of analysis is always emphasized by researcher(s) because not all work is absolutely done at individual level. Playing football, building an academic module, and developing new design need the group to work to complete them. Therefore, individual-level analysis only is not sufficient. It needs researchers to look at the different angle of analysis, group level of analysis. By using group level of analysis, this study aims to examine the measurement of group process in the industrial practices. The formula of James et al. [13] is used to make a verification of interrater agreement. A total of 460 undergraduates from six universities have engaged in brainstorming sessions. The result clearly shows that the three measures of process - production blocking, social loafing, and evaluation apprehension - can be acceptable in using interrater of agreement on group work in design practices especially industrial design. © Springer Science+Business Media Singapore 2015.
