Improving Team Coordination: A Case for Behavior-Based Training

Abstract

In this article, we integrate the findings of three studies that focused on improv- ing team performance in a military aviation setting. In the first two studies, we investigated the effect of exposing subject aviators to standardized, behavior- based training for improving team coordination and performance. In the third study, we investigated the effect of increased intrateam familiarity (battle rostering) on team coordination and performance. In these studies, we measured effect in terms of attitudinal change, coordination behavior change, and team task performance change. The general findings suggest that standardized, behavior-based training produces team coordination and performance superior to that achieved through battle fostering. Findings also demonstrate that behavioral change is a more reliable marker of training impact than attitudinal change.
