Abstract
In this paper we aim to describe commitment attitudes in teams of agents involved in Cooperative Problem Solving (CPS). Particular attention is given to the collective commitment. First, a logical framework is sketched in which a number of relevant social and collective attitudes is formalized, leading to the plan-based definition of collective commitments. Then, a social structure component is added to this framework in order to capture how the structure-relation concerning the group can influence the collective commitment and CPS.
