Abstract

In this review, we provide a deeper understanding of the team emergent states (TES) literature by building upon Marks et al.'s cognitive, affective, motivational categories, to suggest that TES may also be amalgams (i.e., a blend of two or more categories). In doing so, we review the literature accumulating between 2000 and 2020, focusing on the eight most-researched TES. We highlight numerous gaps within the TES literature and offer promising future research directions. We envision this work as laying the foundation upon which TES research can continue to emerge in the coming decades.
