Yet, little empirical research has been devoted tointernational heterogeneous groups composed of different ethnicities and races, namely to howthese differences effect group effectiveness. Therefore, this research tries to narrow this gap andshed light on an exploration of international group analysis. At best, this research may serve asan engine to initiate more research with non-European American groups and understand theexpansive nature of human relations and interaction within international heterogeneous groups’domains. The aim of this paper is to examine the group dynamics of an international research groupcomposed of heterogeneous members. In this study, group dynamics refer to group effectivenesswhich is defined

The need for more constructorsis timely due to the role of these professionals in repairing and rebuilding nationalinfrastructure—an enormous U.S. challenge given the number of infrastructure systems ratedbelow a C grade on the ASCE Infrastructure Report Card [7].
