Abstract
This report describes the theoretical foundations, methodology, and initial results of an ongoing empirical investigation of team decision making. The theoretical foundations are based on the team process and performance literature, which is discussed in terms of a broad model of team performance. To allow for the measurement of various elements of team performance depicted in the model, a computerized testbed has been developed. This testbed, the Team Performance Assessment Battery (TPAB), includes team and individual tasks arranged according to a synthetic work methodology. Using TPAB, an empirical study has been performed in which team structure and workload were manipulated in a between groups design. The results of this study are interpreted in the context of the team performance model. Implications for future research are also discussed.
