q2 · i? · review · r3

Across the 18 included studies, only one article specifically mentioned the term attitudes as a result of a team-based intervention; studies instead focused on teacher satisfaction or enhanced teacher confidence.

"Therefore, there was not enough evidence to draw conclusions about teacher attitude changes as an outcome variable of team-based professional development interventions."
