Abstract

Recent efforts to enhance team performance have been grounded in analysis of team cognition, shared mental models, communication, and teamwork skills. However, alternative lines of work in social psychology and organizational development have addressed “psychosocial” factors, e.g., team cohesion, human relations training and transformational leadership. The goal of this panel is to explore the relevance of these factors for improving team performance. Panelists will describe research advances from laboratory and operational environments (military, space, and medicine), including tools for assessing team cohesion, psychosocial training strategies, analytical methods for examining changes in team performance, and limits to psychosocial approaches.
