An examination of the effects of organizational district and team contexts on team processes and performance: a meso‐mediational model
通过纵向跨层次设计，研究了组织区域和团队情境对团队过程与绩效的影响，发现团队层面的相互依赖通过过程部分中介影响绩效，组织区域层面的开放氛围通过团队过程完全中介影响绩效，而多团队协调则直接且负向调节团队过程与绩效的关系。
Abstract We examined the effects of organizational district and team contexts on team processes and performance in a longitudinal cross‐level design. As hypothesized, at the team‐level of analysis, interdependence related positively to team performance as partially mediated by processes. Moreover, a cross‐level mediational relationship was evident between the organizational district‐level openness climate and team performance as fully mediated by team processes. In contrast, organizational district‐level multi‐team coordination unexpectedly exhibited a direct cross‐level relationship with team performance. Multi‐team coordination also negatively interacted with team processes as related to team performance, in an exploratory analysis. Results are discussed in terms of the importance of considering both organizational‐district and team contexts as embedding conditions that influence team effectiveness.
