Resumo(s)
We build on Nonlinear Dynamic Systems (NDS) theory to examine if
team performance change across a complete performance cycle is nonlinear, and
if such change is related with team processes change over time. Participants were
214 teams enrolled in one management competition. The hypotheses were tested
using nonlinear regressions and catastrophe modeling. The results of the
nonlinear regression model support the hypothesis that change in team
performance over time follows a cusp catastrophe distribution, R2
Cusp = .93, F (5,
1065) = 16889.82, p < .001); and that team processes do function as asymmetry
(transition and action processes) and bifurcation (interpersonal processes)
factors. The results also suggest that the cusp catastrophe model (R2 = .68)
explains team performance better than the linear (R2 = .05) and logistic models
(R2 = .07). This study reiterates the importance of incorporating the NDS
perspective within the teamwork literature to leverage our knowledge about the
way teams perform over time.
