15		-Endsley defines team SA as the degree to which each team member possesses the SA required for his or her responsibilities [1]. SA is vital to individual performance, and team (or shared) SA is critical to good team performance. Team members may have different subgoals in a given trauma resuscitation. **Team SA can be subdivided into 2 types: (1) shared SA, in which team members possess the same SA and (2) complimentary SA, which represents unique, specialty-specific SA necessary for good team performance** [ref id.] (Fig. 1). **Actionable SA** is  realized by integrating SA-support with decision-support functionalities, so that actions can be initiated and guided efficiently and effectively (e.g., see ASSISTANCE's Chemical Hazard module that displays information about gas distributions, its current and predicted future states , with explicit affordances to set safe approach and evacuation routes [2].

Team members may have different subgoals in a given trauma resuscitation. **Team SA can be subdivided into 2 types: (1) shared SA, in which team members possess the same SA and (2) complimentary SA, which represents unique, specialty-specific SA necessary for good (combined) team performance** [ref id.] (Fig. 1). **Actionable SA** is  realized by integrating SA-support with decision-support functionalities, so that actions can be initiated and guided efficiently and effectively (e.g., see ASSISTANCE's Chemical Hazard module that displays information about gas distributions, its current and predicted future states , with explicit affordances to set safe approach and evacuation routes [2].

	22	+How the environmental states are perceived, understood and predicted are determined by the experience and knowledge of the concerning team member. Humans develop and share **mental models** that support both the interpretation of situational conditions and the activation of appropriate behaviors and decisions (Andrews et al., 2023). This can concern for example the spatial layout ("mental map") of an oil factory, its hazards ("explosive gases"), and the related fire operational procedures (ventilation closure, boundary cooling, ...). Individual team members can have specific skills and expertise for specific tasks or problems (e.g., on the explosion risks of gas combinations, or stability of collapsed buildings). **Transactive Memory Systems (TMS) **have been developed to share "who knows what" within teams, supporting specialized task performances and coordination.  It should be noted that expert knowledge is often **implicit**. For example, team performance can benefit from implicit coordination for both routine and non-routine tasks, which both can be strengthened by transactive memory systems (Marques-Quinteiro et al., 2023). Based on experience, experts develop and apply intuition in the form of **heuristics** (simple, efficient rules of thumb). These heuristics are effective, and can even outperform complex reasoning in uncertain situations, when they are tuned to the current environmental states and regularities (Gigerenzer, 2023).

There is also a version (Team SAGAT) for assessing shared situation awareness [3-5].
