Team Cognition in Sport: How Current Insights Into How Teamwork Is Achieved in Naturalistic Settings Can Lead to Simulation Studies

Abstract

As hypothesized, affordances rely in the player-player coordination (see above for details), making players' individual awareness to be local (i.e., aware of the nearby space). At the team-scale, the chaining of local individual awareness is then assumed to be patterned enough to allow team coordination to emerge. In their empirical study, Feigean and colleagues investigated a football game naturalistic setting (Feigean et al., ). Collecting audio-video recording and related verbalization data from every team member, analyses were focused on the nature of information that supported players' ac
