If you Fight with Me, I'll Get Mad! A Social Model of Entrepreneurial Affect
基于归因理论,区分关系冲突和任务冲突,通过实地和实验室两项研究,发现不确定性减弱冲突引发的负面情感,而团队满意度则放大这种情感反应。
Although studies have highlighted economic and psychological antecedents of negative affect, social antecedents have been neglected. Building on attribution theory, we distinguish between relationship and task conflict to investigate the generation of negative affect during entrepreneurial team tasks including the team members’ context in terms of uncertainty and satisfaction with the team. Two studies, in the field and in the laboratory, highlight the importance of social contexts: while uncertainty attenuates negative affective reactions to conflict, satisfaction with the team magnifies them. We discuss our contributions for research on affect, conflict, uncertainty, and satisfaction with the team in entrepreneurial contexts.
