Abstract
Research is knowledge-intensive work, which implies performing complex and ambiguous activities in order to develop or create knowledge. The context of researchers is marked by a few trends: 1) an increasing complexity of research objects, which requires more and more to adopt multidisciplinary approaches; 2) emerging institutional pressures under which the academic career is more and more dependent on scientific researchers' results. Consequently, individuals tend to join teams in order to maximize the cumulative advantage of collaboration on research performance and effectiveness. The last decades have thus shown a significant shift in the way of conducting research, from individual based work to an organization of work in teams of scientists. However, despite the importance of working groups for research, no synthesis of empirical evidence has yet been done on academic researchers. This scoping review allows to advance knowledge on the synthesis of research team performance and effectiveness and to construct an evidence-based conceptual framework. It allows to identify 28 articles, whose analysis lead to the identification of more than 15 groups of operational definitions of performance and effectiveness, and more than 25 groups of determinants linked to three levels of aggregation (project, team, and institutional/organizational levels).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
