Prior to discussing our method and
approach for developing the Teamwork Scale
for ALL, we briefly review the relevant
literature on culture. More than other ALL
measures, responses to the teamwork measure
may be affected by the culture of the
respondent. In the next section, we review
research that specifically examines the
relationship between societal culture and an
individual’s attitudes, values, beliefs, and
behavior in a team. Based on this research and
on our understanding of the factors that
enhance teamwork, we propose a number of
likely relationships that will be demonstrated
in the ALL between culture and teamwork.
