Robbers Cave04:49

Robbers Cave

During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension could be...
Impact of Individuals on a Group01:25

Impact of Individuals on a Group

In social psychology, the interplay between individuals and groups is a central concern, particularly regarding how individual actions and characteristics influence group processes and outcomes. While much research emphasizes the group's power in shaping individual behavior, it is equally significant to understand how individuals contribute to the functioning, development, and success of groups.Individual Roles in Group Productivity and Decision-MakingIndividuals are not passive participants in...
Social Loafing01:37

Social Loafing

Another way in which a group presence can affect performance is social loafing—the exertion of less effort by a person working together with a group. Social loafing occurs when our individual performance cannot be evaluated separately from the group. Thus, group performance declines on easy tasks (Karau & Williams, 1993). Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated, individuals become less...
Social Facilitation01:04

Social Facilitation

Not all intergroup interactions lead to negative outcomes. Sometimes, being in a group situation can improve performance. Social facilitation occurs when an individual performs better when an audience is watching than when the individual performs the behavior alone. This typically occurs when people are performing a task for which they are skilled.
Social Foundations of Self II: The Generalized Other01:20

Social Foundations of Self II: The Generalized Other

According to George Herbert Mead, as children progress beyond the game stage, they develop a more comprehensive understanding of societal rules and norms. This cognitive and social development enables them to internalize the expectations of the broader community, refining their ability to regulate behavior.Consistent participation in organized activities is crucial in helping children recognize that their actions are not isolated but contribute to a more significant, interconnected group effort.
Social Foundations of Self I: Play and Game01:24

Social Foundations of Self I: Play and Game

The development of self in children is deeply rooted in social interactions, mainly through stages of play and structured games. These stages, outlined by sociologist George Herbert Mead, illustrate how children progressively learn to understand and adopt social roles, forming a cohesive sense of self.The Play Stage: Imitation and Simple Role-TakingIn the early years of childhood, the play stage is characterized by imitative behavior, where children engage in role-playing based on familiar...

Area of Science:

  • Teamwork and collaboration in academic health centers.
  • Professional development in healthcare settings.

Background:

  • Academic health centers increasingly rely on team-based approaches.
  • Effective team skills are crucial for professional development in these settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a transdisciplinary program for enhancing teamwork skills.
  • To determine if the program equips individuals to improve their institutions' team outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented the Learning in Teams model for a national professional development program (2006-2008).
  • Used pre/post surveys to assess changes in team functioning.
  • Analyzed narrative reports on team task management, dynamics, and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Participants demonstrated improved team skills, including clarifying team charge, purpose, and process.
  • Self-assessments showed enhanced team performance.
  • Participants' home institutions' teams showed increased productivity.

Conclusions:

  • The Learning in Teams model effectively develops individual team skills.
  • This model can enhance institutional team performance in academic health centers.
  • The model provides a foundation for research in team skills and process improvement.
