Maintenance functions are behaviors in a group that serve to influence the
interpersonal relationships of group members and also impact the overall group climate.
Examples of maintenance behaviors include tensionrelieving behaviors, which serve to
decrease group negativity and aggravation, and gatekeeping, where a group member tries to
ensure that all group members have a chance to speak. Task functions in groups are behaviors
that serve the group charge or task. Examples of task functions include summarizing, where a
group member tries to ensure that all members are on the same page regarding group
decisions and task assignments, and information giving, where members offer facts and
research relevant to the group's task.
