The Journal of Small Group Studies is an academic journal dedicated to exploring the phenomenon and impact of small groups. Small groups, as an important concept in social psychology and organizational behavior, refer to social groups with relatively few members, close interpersonal relationships, and frequent interactions. This type of group usually has the characteristics of small scale, frequent interaction, and deep relationships, covering various specific forms such as families, informal organizations, work teams, and classes.

The Journal of Small Group Studies aims to provide a platform for academic exchange, bringing together researchers and practitioners from different fields to explore the formation mechanisms, development dynamics, functional roles, and impacts of small groups on society, organizations, and individuals. The research papers published in the journal cover multiple aspects such as communication patterns, leadership, conflict resolution, teamwork, and group decision-making within small groups, aiming to reveal the mysteries of internal operations within small groups and provide strong support for theoretical research and practical applications in related fields.
