This study examined the influence of aggressive individuals on a team training protocol. Overall, the presence of an aggressive individual was detrimental to the knowledge acquisition and performance of both the aggressive individual and his or her teammate. Specifically, when compared to teams without an aggressive individual, teams including an aggressive individual demonstrated significantly lower levels of (1) taskwork schema congruence with one another, (2) taskwork schema congruence with subject matter experts, (3) team performance, and (4) individual performance. Moreover, although no significant differences emerged in teamwork schema congruence between teams with and without an aggressive individual, teamwork and taskwork schema congruence demonstrated a differential relationship between teams with and without an aggressive individual.
