“…An important element in setting teams is each member's personality style. In general, personality style relates to enduring personality characteristics that are reflected in individual behavior, which affects how a team of different personalities performs (Kunce, Cope, & Newton, 1991). The personality characteristics are related to two basic dimensions: assertive versus reflective expression of feelings, and task‐ versus people‐orientation in completing activities.…”

The main concern is a longstanding one in classroom instruction-the determinants of effective team performance. The paper explicitly examines the effect of teacher-controlled factors on the use and functioning of student teams. From a sample of 500 undergraduate students, data are obtained on aptitude, diversity, instability, motivation, personality style, size, and performance. The regression results suggest that team motivation and instability, which are both partly controlled by the instructor, are particularly important in determining a team's performance. An implication is that instructor decisions about team make-up and incentives can have a significant impact on student achievement.

Personal styles and ways of coping in individuals who use wheelchairs

et al. 1996

To obtain information about the psychological needs of wheelchair users, 45 subjects participating in a university-based drop-in physical activity centre and outpatient rehabilitation program completed the Personal Styles Inventory and the Ways of Coping Inventory. Three groups of subjects were formed, differentiated by etiology for their disability. Results suggested that subjects with brain injury possessed the most limited coping resources. Subjects with multiple sclerosis were highest of the three groups in the frequency of utilization of emotional coping, they also revealed a fundamentally introverted and stability-based personality style. Subjects with spinal cord injuries utilized a predominantly Problem-solving means of coping; and they revealed a basic personality style characterized as extroverted and stable. The findings suggest that disease process (perhaps through common preexisting psychological characteristics, the nature of the onset and progression of the disease process, and/or tissue damage) may modify the ability to adapt and cope with the need to use a wheelchair. The nature of psychological support to be offered should reflect not only the use of a wheelchair but also the underlying personality and its modification by the nature of the disease process.
