Feeling included in the workgroup as a multicultural: The role of prosocial motivation and context dependent message communication
研究了在英国工作的多元文化个体如何通过亲社会动机和情境依赖信息沟通，实现身份优势并感知到工作组的包容。
Multicultural individuals are a key resource for internationalizing businesses, yet there is a paucity of research that explains how these individuals realize the advantage of their identities within organizational workgroups. This study adopts an identity-based lens to examine how multicultural individuals working in the United Kingdom perceive being included in their workgroups. The two dimensions of multicultural identity (identity integration and identity plurality) were found to positively relate to workgroup inclusion with these effects mediated by prosocial motivation and context dependent message communication respectively. This research contributes to an understanding of multicultural individuals in workgroups and to knowledge at the intersection of culture and inclusion.
