Abstract

Abstract Group diversity, defined as the distribution of differences among the members of a unit with respect to a common attribute, is an important determinant of group processes and effectiveness. The present study examined the effects of diversity with respect to time urgency personality trait and individualism on emotional and task conflict as well as the moderating role of group tenure on this relationship. Hypotheses based upon the similarity-attraction paradigm (Byrne, 1971) were tested employing survey research design. Results from 49 teams depicted that individualism diversity is a trigger of emotional conflict and that the group tenure weakened this link.

Özet

Özet Bir grubun üyelerinin ortak bir özellik bakımından farklılıklarının dağılımı olarak tanımlanan grup çeşitliliği grup süreçlerinin ve etkinliğinin önemli bir belirleyicisidir. Bu çalışmada grupların zaman duyarlılığı kişilik özelliği ile bireycilik değeri bakımından çeşitliliğinin duygusal ve görevsel çatışmaya ilişkisi ve bu ilişkinin grubun birlikte olduğu süreden nasıl etkilendiği incelenmiştir. Benzerlik-çekim yaklaşımı (Byrne, 1971) çerçevesinde geliştirilen hipotezler, 49 takımın katıldığı bir anket çalışması ile test edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, bireycilik değeri çeşitliliğinin duygusal çatışmayı tetiklediğini ve grubun birlikte çalıştığı sürenin uzunluğunun bu ilişkiyi zayıflattığını göstermiştir.
