Collaborative problem solving (CPS) has been receiving increasing international attention because much of the complex work in the modern world is performed by teams. However, systematic education and training on CPS is lacking for those entering and participating in the workforce. In 2015, the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), a global test of educational progress, documented the low levels of proficiency in CPS. This result not only underscores a significant societal need but also presents an important opportunity for psychological scientists to develop, adopt, and implement theory and empirical research on CPS and to work with educators and policy experts to improve training in CPS. This article offers some directions for psychological science to participate in the growing attention to CPS throughout the world. First, it identifies the existing theoretical frameworks and empirical research that focus on CPS. Second, it provides examples of how recent technologies can automate analyses of CPS processes and assessments so that substantially larger data sets can be analyzed and so students can receive immediate feedback on their CPS performance. Third, it identifies some challenges, debates, and uncertainties in creating an infrastructure for research, education, and training in CPS. CPS education and assessment are expected to improve when supported by larger data sets and theoretical frameworks that are informed by psychological science. This will require interdisciplinary efforts that include expertise in psychological science, education, assessment, intelligent digital technologies, and policy.

协作问题解决（CPS）受到了越来越多的国际关注，因为现代世界中许多复杂的工作都是由团队来完成的。但是，对于进入和参加劳动大军的人来说，缺乏关于CPS的系统的教育和培训。2015年，国际学生评估计划（PISA）是一项全球性的教育进步测验，记录了CPS的较低水平。这一结果不仅强调了巨大的社会需求，而且为心理学家提供了重要的机会，以发展，采用和实施有关CPS的理论和实证研究，并与教育工作者和政策专家合作以改善CPS的培训。本文为心理学界参与全球CPS日益增长的关注提供了一些指导。第一的，它确定了针对CPS的现有理论框架和实证研究。其次，它提供了一些示例，说明了最新技术如何使CPS流程和评估的分析自动化，从而可以分析大得多的数据集，从而使学生可以立即收到有关其CPS绩效的反馈。第三，它确定了在创建CPS的研究，教育和培训基础结构方面的一些挑战，辩论和不确定性。借助心理科学所提供的更大的数据集和理论框架，CPS的教育和评估有望得到改善。这将需要跨学科的努力，包括心理学，教育，评估，智能数字技术和政策方面的专业知识。
