Research Overview
The research underscores the critical
importance of teamwork skills in personal,
academic, and professional spheres,
prompting universities to incorporate them
into their curricula. The research focused
on assessing teamwork skills among
Spanish university students, particularly
examining the impact of socio-academic
variables such as gender, academic year,
and grade point average (GPA) on their
proficiency in these skills. The findings
revealed noteworthy gender differences,
with female students demonstrating
superior teamwork skills overall, except in
leadership.
Additionally, students exhibited improved teamwork skills with academic progression,
specifically in adaptability and decision-making. A positive correlation was identified between
teamwork skills and GPA, with regression analysis emphasizing the influential roles of academic
year and GPA, particularly for women. The study suggests the need for adjustments in
university education programs to address socio-academic factors and leverage gender-specific
strengths in teamwork, ultimately fostering equal and equitable higher education.
