Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Attitudinal contributions to team learning overall show rho = .61 (37% variance); psychological safety (rho = .86, 74%), cohesion (rho = .66, 44%), and trust (rho = .52, 27%) are prominent. → Robert A. Sottilare 2018

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2
Meta-analytic synthesis of attitudinal contributions to team learning (Table 6), based on very few studies (overall k = 5, N = 523) with overall rho = .61; the article reports "attitudes reflective of cooperation account for 37% of the variance in team learning" and calls for future research to strengthen confidence.
"Not surprisingly, attitudes reflective of cooperation account for 37% of the variance in team learning (Table 6). The role of psychological safety (74%), cohesion (44%), and trust (27%) becomes evident, but the issue of number of studies remains."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Safety — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
Related Claims¶
- Team behaviors explain up to 42% of the variance in team performance, with action processes and organizational citizenship behaviors the strongest contributors
- Team behaviors account for 7–36% of the variance in team learning, with communication (25%) and reflexivity (15%) the main antecedents
- Meta-analysis finds task-focused leadership accounts for about 10% of variance in team effectiveness perceptions and empowerment behaviors nearly 30% of variance in team learning — related
