title = "Virtual teams",
abstract = "This chapter examines how virtual teams (VTs) compare to their face-to-face (FtF) counterparts, as well as the impact of virtuality on team dynamics and performance. It describes how the term has been conceptualized as well as the approaches that researchers have utilized in operationalizing team virtuality. The chapter highlights some “favorite” theories, which continue to receive a great deal of research attention as well as a few other established team and organizational theories that remain less well integrated within the VT literature. It suggests that future research involving VTs should start to more fully consider which of the existing theories are appropriate to understand this domain. In terms of methodological trends with the VT literature over the past decade includes the following main categories: laboratory studies and student samples; cross-sectional design; level of analysis; technology; and social network analysis.",
