“…As the extant literature dealt with the history of teamwork, particularly for the fields of psychology and health care, several reviews reflected this development, and a number of articles and book chapters were specifically devoted to this purpose as well (Baldwin, 2007;Brown, 1982;Cannon-Bowers & Bowers, 2011;Moreland, Hogg, & Hains, 1994;Ryan, 1996;Sanna & Parks, 1997;Simpson & Wood, 1992;Sundstrom et al, 2000). Consistent with each other, these previous accounts of the history of teamwork research report that the study of teamwork had a slow start, some ups and downs in between (Brown, 1982;Cannon-Bowers & Bowers, 2011;Ryan, 1996;Simpson & Wood, 1992), and finally "literally exploded in recent years," now resulting in a "voluminous literature on the subject" (Cannon-Bowers & Bowers, 2011, 0,0000% 0,0001% 0,0002% 0,0003% 0,0004% 0,0005% 0,0006% 1900 1902 1904 1906 1908 1910 1912 1914 1916 1918 1920 1922 1924 1926 1928 1930 1932 1934 1936 1938 1940 1942 1944 1946 1948 1950 1952 1954 1956 1958 1960 1962 1964 1966 1968 1970 1972 1974 1976 1978 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 p. 597). In fact, the pattern of teamwork research in psychology and health care presented in narrative reviews followed strikingly similar patterns, replicating a curvilinear trend line with peaks and lows in parallel order.…”
