The purpose of this review was to examine published research on small-group
development done in the last ten years that would constitute an empirical
test of Tuckman's (1965) hypothesis that groups go through the stages
of "forming," "storming," "norming," and "performing." Of the twenty-two
studies reviewed, only one set out to directly test this hypothesis,
although many of the others could be related to it. Following a review
of these studies, a fifth stage, ädjourning," was added to the hypothesis,
and more empirical work was recommended.
