Introducing Team Mindfulness and Considering its Safeguard Role Against Conflict Transformation and Social Undermining
研究提出团队正念概念，通过三项多波现场研究验证其测量工具，发现团队正念能减少团队关系冲突、削弱任务冲突向关系冲突的转化，并抑制关系冲突向个体社会破坏的跨层溢出，对团队管理有实践价值。
The authors introduce the concept of team mindfulness, defined as a shared belief among team members that their interactions are characterized by awareness and attention to present events, and experiential, nonjudgmental processing of within-team experiences. Team mindfulness is examined as a safeguard against multilevel team conflict transformation processes. Results from three multi-wave field studies validate a team mindfulness instrument and indicate that team mindfulness (1) negatively relates to team relationship conflict, (2) reduces the connection between task conflict and relationship conflict at the team level, (3) and reduces the cross-level spillover of team relationship conflict to individual social undermining. The research contributes to the growing workplace mindfulness literature by conceptualizing mindfulness at the team level and demonstrating its positive effects for team functioning. Results also contribute to research on team conflict and social undermining, showing that team mindfulness is a promising intervention to reduce team conflict and its ill effects.
