Developing team cognition: a role for simulation.

Fernandez R, Shah S, Rosenman ED, Kozlowski SWJ, Parker SH, Grand JA. Sim Healthc. 2017;12:96-103.

Simulation training has been advocated as a way to improve individuals' technical and nontechnical skills. This review explores how simulation can help teams enhance their situation awareness and responsiveness. The authors recommend that future research should draw on team science to inform design of simulation strategies that augment team mental models.
