This study compared and contrasted the effects of group dynamics using Strategic Air Command KC-135 officer aircrew members who operate under an integral crew concept and Military Airlift Command officer aircrew members who operate under a non-integral crew concept. The study compared level of group cohesiveness and intragroup communications between the two types of crew structures. It also examined the degree of confidence crewmembers had in the people with whom they flew, attitudes regarding flying safety norms, and the type of crew structure preferred in a combat environment. Finally, this study sought to determine if crewmembers perceived that navigators had a greater opportunity to assume a leadership role in the crew with whom they flew if performing their duties under an integral crew structure.
