Research on small groups is highly diverse because investigators who study such groups vary in their disciplinary identifications, theoretical interests, and methodological preferences. The goal of this volume is to capture that diversity, and thereby convey the breadth and excitement of small group research by acquainting students with work on five fundamental aspects of groups. The volume also includes an introductory chapter by the editors which provides an overview of the history of and current state-of-the-art in the field. Together with introductions to each section, discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, make the volume ideal reading for senior undergraduate and graduate students interested in group dynamics.
'The volume contains an excellent set of readings about groups from two of the best researchers/theorists in the field. The coverage is very comprehensive, spanning many theoretical orientations, methodological techniques, and disciplinary boundaries. If a student/scholar is looking for a great introduction to the area of group research, this is it.' - R. Scott Tindale‚ Professor and Department Chair of Psychology, Loyola University Chicago
'Levine and Moreland have assembled a brilliant set of key readings on small groups. Not only should this be required reading for students at all levels, it also triggers a host of important research questions that undoubtedly will move this exciting field forward. This set of classic and contemporary articles is a must-read for anyone studying or managing small groups.' - Carsten K.W. De Dreu, Professor of Organizational Psychology, University of Amsterdam
