Cohesion and Team Success There
The work of Aric Hall entitled "Sport Psychology: Building Group Cohesion, Performance, and Trust in Athletic Teams" reports a study that sought to provide a better identification of the "correlates of effective team building and the development of team cohesion." (2007, p.1) Hall (2007) reports that social groupings are "part of the human's relationship with society. Groups have power and a culture distinct to itself. Groups contain characteristics that are common to every other group, but they also possess characteristics unique to the group in question. A group has a common fate to its members; a mutual benefit for members, social structure, group processes and self-categorization." (2003, p.2) When Hall states that the group has a "common fate" what he means is that "the whole team wins or the whole team loses. It is the team identity." (Hall, 2003, p.3)
