Methods: This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional design conducted in 43 primary healthcare centers (PHC), and it involved 319 respondents selected by proportional stratified random sampling. The data were collected through questionnaires and tested descriptively and through multivariable linear regression to confirm the most significant models of independent variables and dependent variables.
Results: The result showed that task cohesion of the cohesion variable (RR= 0.374; p= 0.014) and cooperative behaviors of the trust variable (RR= 0.558; p= 0.000) had a significant influence on team effectiveness. The others dimension of team cohesion and trust had no significant impact on team effectiveness
Conclusion: Team effectiveness is dependent on team cohesion and trust that the teamwork process component.
