Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the dispersion models, where within-team variance is the outcome of interest, and propose the application of these models to the measurement of the transactive memory system (TMS). As teams become increasingly prominent in educational contexts and within organizations, it is important to evaluate how various measures of individual and team attributes relate to team performance. One measure that has been evaluated by a number of previous empirical studies is TMSs. Design/methodology/approach In past studies of TMS and in most teams research, team-level data are collected and correlated with performance, or individual-level data are collected, aggregated to the team-level data and then correlated with performance. While this is appropriate in situations where data are isomorphic or similar across levels of measurement, there are often important differences among within-team responses that lead to a discrepancy between the sum of individual attributes and a team-level measure. Findings Preliminary results demonstrate that within-team variance in reported levels of TMS has an inverse relationship with team performance. Research limitations/implications Future research should further evaluate the ability for dispersion models of TMS to predict team performance, especially in organizational settings with professional rather than student teams. Originality/value This paper provides a new approach to measuring TMS and relating TMS to team performance.
团队内部差异对事务记忆系统开发和团队绩效的影响
本文的目的是描述分散模型,其中团队内部方差是感兴趣的结果,并提出这些模型在交互记忆系统(TMS)测量中的应用。随着团队在教育环境和组织中变得越来越突出,评估个人和团队属性的各种度量与团队绩效之间的关系是很重要的。许多以前的实证研究已经评估过的一种措施是tms。在过去的TMS研究和大多数团队研究中,收集团队层面的数据并将其与绩效相关联,或者收集个人层面的数据,将其汇总为团队层面的数据,然后将其与绩效相关联。虽然这适用于跨度量级别的数据同构或相似的情况,但在团队内部响应之间通常存在重要差异,从而导致个人属性和团队级别度量之间的差异。初步结果表明,团队内部报告的TMS水平差异与团队绩效呈反比关系。未来的研究应进一步评估TMS离散模型预测团队绩效的能力,特别是在专业团队而非学生团队的组织环境中。本文提供了一种测量TMS的新方法,并将TMS与团队绩效联系起来。

期刊介绍: This international journal contributes to the successful implementation and development of work teams and team-based organizations by providing a forum for sharing experience and learning to stimulate thought and transfer of ideas. It seeks to bridge the gap between research and practice by publishing articles where the claims are evidence-based and the conclusions have practical value. Effective teams form the heart of every successful organization. But team management is one of the hardest challenges faced by managers.
