Shared Team Experiences and Team Effectiveness: Unpacking the Contingent Effects of Entrained Rhythms and Task Characteristics

This article evaluates the impact of entrained rhythms and task characteristics on shared team experiences and team effectiveness. The study findings reveal that team effectiveness relationship relies on salient task characteristics and pre-surgery briefing must be conducted to increase task characteristics awareness and promote team collaboration.

Abstract
The evaluation of the selected article offers a significant evaluation on the ways in which the
contingent impacts of entrained rhythm and task characteristics impact team experience and
effectiveness. From analysis of the hypotheses those were tested and the methods used in
testing them it has been revealed that it is necessary to understand that manifestation and
counterviewing forces intervention such as synchronization and competency on STTS
experience. Based on such factors team effectiveness relationship will rely on salient task
characteristics. Moreover, the ancillary analysis on patient post surgery recovery rate has
offered significant insights that facilitated in discussing future directions.

Introduction
Relevance of Topic and Content in Selected Article
The article selected for evaluating the topic of importance of shared team experiences
and effectiveness is “unpacking the contingent impacts of entrained rhythms and task
characteristics”. Selection of this article and its content is observed to have significant
implications on explaining ways in which “shared team task-specific experiences” might
impact team effectiveness in crew-based arrangements.
Discussion
Theses stated by Author
In the article the theses stated by the author is focused on analysing relationship
between shared team experiences and team effectiveness. The theses also considered offering
practical implications for staffing crews in healthcare settings.
Evaluating of Hypotheses formed in the Article
Hypotheses development in this article included testing variables like shared team
task-specific experiences, team effectiveness, interactions with task characteristics and task
difficulty. The hypotheses formed considered testing relationship among all these above
variables to attain desired study findings.
Evaluation of Hypotheses Testing Methods
From analysing the article, it is gathered that qualitative and quantitative research
methods were used in analysing the relationship between STTS experience, team
effectiveness and task characteristics for testing set hypotheses (Hu & Liden, 2015). The
research is deemed to attain reliable data as the 26 individuals those were selected in

interview included surgeons, nurse’s anesthesia providers and technicians related in crew-
based team arrangements.
Evaluation of Obtained Results
The gathered findings from article is considered being significant as it revealed results
on variation in team composition, dynamics that makes healthcare ideal for experiencing the
hypotheses relationship (Luciano et al., 2018). It revealed pre-surgery briefing must be
conducted by team to increase task characteristics awareness and promote team collaboration.
Conclusion
The conclusion derived from the article explained that there are two major issues
identified in shared team experience. The issues revealed by this article are previous
exclusion of complacency from theories related with STTS experienced in crew-based
arrangements and low realization of conditions under which contemplacency is observed to
manifest team efficiency.

The above article explains the difference that exist in team collaboration and effectiveness
through analyzing the link between practical motivation, team processes and effectiveness. It
also focused on revealing facts that team collaboration process is captured through task
driven procedure of team cooperation along with affect-based team viability. The article also
proposed a theoretical model that associates team prosocial motivation to team efficiency as
considered by team processes. It is revealed that team process is captured by means of task-
driven processes of team collaboration and is operationalized by organizational citizenship
behavior.
