Question

Arrange the Sequence of evolutionary stages of Group Dynamics:
(A). Storming
(B). Norming
(C). Forming
(D). Performing
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (C), (A), (B), (D).
• B. (A), (B), (C), (D).
• C. (B), (A), (D), (C).
• D. (C), (B), (D), (A).

Hint:

To answer sequence-based questions, remember Tuckman’s ”Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing” model for group development.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The stages of group dynamics as per Bruce Tuckman’s model are:

1. Forming (C): The initial stage where group members come together and start understanding their roles.
2. Storming (A): Members experience conflicts and challenges as they adjust to working together.
3. Norming (B): The group establishes norms, cohesion, and collaboration.
4. Performing (D): The group functions effectively towards achieving its goals.

This sequence highlights how groups evolve from initial formation to effective performance.
