Chapter 6 – Group and Team Performance 90
Chapter 6 – Group and Team Performance 90 CHAPTER 6 – Group and Team Performance OBJECTIVES The major purpose of this chapter on group process and effectiveness is to introduce the student to ways to think about interacting groups so that they will become more effective members and leaders of them. Every student has had some experience with both social and task groups that they can call on as they study this topic. Our first objective in this chapter is to focus on how central these groups are to our lives. We also attempt to impress on the students that they will likely spend large proportions of their work hours in small group settings, because modern management appears to be making increasing use of teams or other small groups to solve problems, make decisions, and execute tasks. The next objective is to help student understand the many types of groups they may be involved with and how groups vary by purpose and organization. Another objective is to introduce students to a basic model of group effectiveness that includes influences from the environment within which the group operates. Environmental influences can have a critical impact on group effectiveness and the different types of influences are considered. At this point the chapter changes its focus to give more emphasis to internal group dynamics by covering such topics as cooperation and competition. Here, one objective is to introduce students to group development and the process by which groups become (or fail to become) mature. Another objective is to introduce the role of norms in influencing group member behavior. -

They are critical but time-consuming in research and decision making for various disciplines. When conducting a review, a large volume of data is usually generated from relevant studies. Computer-based tools are often used to manage such data and to support the systematic review process. This paper describes a comprehensive analysis to gather the required features of a systematic review tool, in order to support the complete evidence synthesis process. We propose a framework, elaborated by consulting experts in different knowledge areas, to evaluate significant features and thus reinforce existing tool capabilities. The framework will be used to enhance the currently available functionality of CloudSERA, a cloud-based systematic review Citation: Person, T.; Ruiz-Rube, I.; Mota, J.M.; Cobo, M.J.; Tselykh, A.; tool focused on Computer Science, to implement evidence-based systematic review processes in Dodero, J.M. -

AN OVERVIEW of TEAM EFFECTIVENESS Cheryl L. Harris
AN OVERVIEW OF TEAM EFFECTIVENESS Cheryl L. Harris What Is Team Effectiveness? Hackman (as cited by Weil, 1995) cites three useful measures for team effectiveness. The measuring standards are 1)productive output that meets or exceeds standards, 2) social processes that maintain or enhance the capability of members to work together on team tasks, and 3) group experience that satisfies personal needs of group members (Weil, 1995). According to Cohen, Ledford, and Spreitzer (1996), work team effectiveness is defined as both high performance and employee quality of work life. The idea draws from sociotechnical theory, which states that both social and technical systems must be maximized for an optimally effective team. Schwarz (1994) modified Hackman's work to specify three criteria necessary for effective groups. First, an effective group delivers output that meets or exceeds the standards of the group's stake holders. Second, the processes used to carry out the work allows members to work together effectively on current projects and on subsequent efforts. Finally, as a whole, the group experience must satisfy the needs of its members. Tannenbaum, Salas and Cannon-Bowers (1996) define effectiveness as a combination of team performance in terms of outputs and the team's ability to grow and regenerate itself. Tannenbaum and colleagues (1996) cite some contextual prerequisites for team success. First, there must be a logical reason for using a team. Teams are not a panacea for every situation; if a task is better done individually, no team is needed. Second, management must demonstrate that they support the team. Third, the team must have the necessary resources to complete the task(s). -

Peer Review of Team Science Research
Peer Review of Team Science Research J. Britt Holbrook School of Public Policy Georgia Institute of Technology 1. Overview This paper explores how peer review mechanisms and processes currently affect team science and how they could be designed to offer better support for team science. This immediately raises the question of how to define teams.1 While recognizing that this question remains open, this paper addresses the issue of the peer review of team science research in terms of the peer review of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research. Although the paper touches on other uses of peer review, for instance, in promotion and tenure decisions and in program evaluation, the main 1 Some researchers who assert the increasing dominance of teams in knowledge production may have a minimalist definition of what constitutes a team. For instance, Wuchty, Jones, and Uzzi (2007) define a team as more than a single author on a journal article; Jones (2011) suggests that a team is constituted by more than one inventor listed on a patent. Such minimalist definitions of teams need not entail any connection with notions of interdisciplinarity, since the multiple authors or inventors that come from the same discipline would still constitute a team. Some scholars working on team collaboration suggest that factors other than differences in disciplinary background – factors such as the size of the team or physical distance between collaborators – are much more important determinants of collaboration success (Walsh and Maloney 2007). Others working on the science of teams argue that all interdisciplinary research is team research, regardless of whether all teams are interdisciplinary; research on the science of teams can therefore inform research on interdisciplinarity, as well as research on the science of team science (Fiore 2008). -
