Nowadays the composition and formation of effective teams is highly important
for both companies to assure their competitiveness and for a wide range of
emerging applications exploiting multiagent collaboration (e.g. crowdsourcing,
human-agent collaborations). The aim of this article is to provide an
integrative perspective on team composition, team formation and their
relationship with team performance. Thus, we review the contributions in both
the computer science literature and the organisational psychology literature
dealing with these topics. Our purpose is twofold. First, we aim at identifying
the strengths and weaknesses of the contributions made by these two diverse
bodies of research. Second, we pursue to identify cross-fertilisation
opportunities that help both disciplines benefit from one another. Given the
volume of existing literature, our review is not intended to be exhaustive.
Instead, we have preferred to focus on the most significant contributions in
both fields together with recent contributions that break new ground to spur
innovative research.
