The Interdisciplinary Research Team

Anthony R. Stone

Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

The task-oriented interacting group known as the interdisciplinary research team is discussed within the theoretical framework of the primary-group Isecondary-group continuum. Primary-group patterns ("We" being the expression) are considered basic to effective team interactional productiveness. However, the secondary-group patterns ("I" being the expression) are considered essential developmentally in the process by which a grouping of competent researchers becomes a true group (i.e., approximating primary-group relationships) as well as important in maintaining the unit during periods of stress. Intrateam statuses, rewards, and complementary leadership and followership roles are seen as crucial to a team's survival and, when used appropriately, may compensate for inner as well as outside stress.
