Research on Predicting Performance in the Simulation

This paper reviews research on the degree to which simulation performance is predicted by academic ability, academic major, personality, motivation, team cohesion and organizational formality. It suggests that performance varies with combinations of independent variables and that the relationship between some independent variables and performance is conditional.
