Relationships between Team Cohesion Dimensions and Business Game Performance

Resumen

Numerous hypothesized relationships between student team cohesion and its antecedents were tested in a Business Policy course using a fairly complex computer- based business game. While a number of cohesion factors approached a significant relationship with team economic performance, the team’s grade-point-average and aptitude homogeneity, the possession of an acknowledged leader with high grades and an economic orientation, and decision-time efficiency were most closely- related to group success.
