Abstract

Effective teamwork requires both individual domain-specific knowledge and social cognitive skills. In this paper, we discuss a theoretical approach that incorporates metacognitive training to enhance social cognition and theory of mind within teams. By using scaffolding techniques to address cognitive biases, we aim to facilitate efficient collaborative problem-solving. Our goal is to develop individual and team metacognitive awareness in social contexts through various interventions implemented during the preparation, execution, and reflection stages of training. We suggest that metacognitive strategies implemented during team training can enhance individuals’ ability to navigate social interactions and understand others’ perspectives. This approach provides a foundation for researchers interested in studying methods to improve collaboration, for teams seeking to enhance interpersonal understanding, and beneficial for those creating interventions to reduce social cognitive biases and improve theory of mind within collaborative problem-solving scenarios.
