Abstract
Dette speciale præsenterer et systematisk review af teambuilding-indsatser for at forstå, om og hvordan de gør teams mere effektive. Søgninger i PsychInfo, EbscoHost og Scopus gav 296 resultater; 56 artikler blev læst i fuld længde, og 19 studier blev inkluderet. De undersøgte teambuildingforløb kombinerede elementer som diagnose (vurdering af teamets behov), målsætning, afklaring af roller, interpersonelle relationer, problemløsning og implementering (at omsætte tiltag i praksis). Elementerne blev anvendt på forskellige måder og i mange kombinationer. Effektivitet blev vurderet ud fra tre typer af udfald: holdningsmæssige (hvordan teammedlemmer tænker og føler), adfærdsmæssige (hvordan de handler) og præstation (hvilke resultater de opnår). Reviewet fandt positive effekter på holdningsmæssige udfald, mens resultaterne for adfærd og præstation var blandede. Langtidseffekterne var også blandede, hvilket tyder på, at teambuilding ikke nødvendigvis gør teams mere effektive på længere sigt.
This thesis presents a systematic review of team-building interventions to understand whether and how they make teams more effective. Searches in PsychInfo, EbscoHost, and Scopus identified 296 records; 56 full texts were read, and 19 studies were included. The team-building programs combined elements such as diagnosis (assessing team needs), goal-setting, role clarification, interpersonal relations, problem solving, and implementation (putting changes into practice). These elements were used in different ways and in many combinations. Effectiveness was assessed across three types of outcomes: attitudinal (how team members think and feel), behavioral (how they act), and performance (what results they achieve). The review found positive effects on attitudinal outcomes, while results for behavioral and performance outcomes were mixed. Long-term effects were also mixed, suggesting that team building does not necessarily make teams more effective over time.
