Based on team effectiveness framework and subgroup theory, this study constructs a theoretical model that aim to explore the mechanisms between informational subgroup configurations and team effectiveness. Through analyzing a sample of 64 knowledge worker teams, we obtained those following meaningful results:(1) the number of informational subgroups is positively related to open and unique of information sharing; the balance of informational subgroups is negatively related to the open information sharing while positively related to the unique information sharing.

The Relationship

This study explores the association between task conflict and team creativity and the role of group cognitive complexity (GCC) as a potential explanatory mechanism in a sample of 159 students organized in 49 groups. Moreover, we analyzed the moderating effect of collective emotional intelligence (CEI)in the relationship between task conflict and GCC.As hypothesized, we found that task conflict has a nonlinear relationship with GCC, but contrary to our expectations, it follows a U-shaped association, not an inversed U-shape. In addition,the moderating role of CEI was significant only at low levels. Contrary to our expectation, the mediating role of GCC did not receive empirical support. Theoretical and practical contributions are discussed.
