"The value of this volume is in the cross-disciplinary snapshot of the research on assessment of collaboration. The editors should be applauded for culling ideas from a variety of disciplines that would otherwise not be cross-referenced. ... the references inside this volume would be an ideal starting point for anyone working in either education or IO psychology, but who is new to the assessment of collaboration." (Tyler H. Matta, Psychometrika, Vol. 83, 2018)

This edited volume provides a platform for experts from various fields to introduce
and discuss their different perspectives on the topic of teamwork and collaborative
problem solving. It brings together researchers in organizational teaming, educational
collaboration, tutoring, simulation, and gaming as well as those involved in statistical
and psychometric process modelling. This book seeks to channel this expertise towards
advances in the measurement and assessment of cognitive and non-cognitive skills of
individuals and teams.
“ The ability to understand the states, traits, and habits of individual learners,
collaborative groups, or team is a necessary prerequisite to guiding, adapting, and
optimizing instructional experiences. The modeling and assessment of learners
interacting with peers, human instructors, or computer-based tutors provides a window
into the effectiveness of instructional tools and methods that is needed to continuously
improve their learning experiences. Any action taken by the tutor/teacher/instructor
without knowledge of those being taught is a shot in the dark. We applaud those who
dedicate their lives to helping us solve the hard problems that will turn on the light and
allow us to easily tailor learning experiences for every person.” (Robert Sottilare, Ph.D., US Army Research Laboratory, Adaptive Training Scientist)
