Teamwork Competency Test (TWCT): a step forward on measuring teamwork competencies

The Teamwork Knowledge, Skill, Ability Test (TWKSAT), designed to assess teamwork competencies, has been widely used in both applied and academic contexts. However, studies have brought to light a number of reliability problems in the test. In this article, we describe 3 studies that (a) examined th...

However, studies have brought to light a number of reliability problems in the test. In this article, we describe 3 studies that (a) examined the functioning of the TWKSAT (N 135); (b) investigated a new measure, the Teamwork Competency Test, including its metric properties (N 120); and (c) analyzed the convergent and predictive validity of the Teamwork Competency Test compared with the TWKSAT (N 91). Based on our results, we conclude that the TWKSAT does not adequately reflect the initial substantive model and has limitations with regard to reliability. The Teamwork Competency Test improves the TWKSAT by enhancing reliability, content validity, and substantiating the dimensional structure of the test.This research was partially supported by the Office of Naval Research Collaboration and Knowledge Interoperability Program and Office of Naval Research Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative Grant N000140610446.American Psychological AssociationDepartamento de Psicología Social y MetodologíaFacultad de Psicología20142014-05-12research articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1SMURhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_71e4c1898caa6e32info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10486/666276https://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0036098reponame:Biblos-e Archivo.
