Abstract
"Relationships between measures of individuals and of groups were analyzed. Relationships were found, indicating that individual members significantly affect the characteristics of small groups. In general it was found that effective group functioning was facilitated by cooperativeness, efficiency, and insight, while behavior which we have called 'striving for individual prominence' reduced group cohesiveness and friendliness."
