Abstract
Scholars have long claimed that teams involve complex systems of member interaction that involve both task and social elements, yet very little
research has directly examined the implications of the interplay of these
two elements for team member relationships specically and for the functioning and eectiveness of teams more generally. is gap is crucial to
resolve because relationships among team members oen serve as the
explanation for linkages among team inputs on one hand and team outcomes on the other (Ilgen, Hollenbeck, Johnson, & Jundt, 2005; McGrath,
1964). To address this gap, we draw from social network theory to propose
a model, depicted in Figure 9.1, that describes how task interdependence
and perceived similarity inuence the nature of relationships among team
members and how these relationships, in turn, inuence team eectiveness by virtue of their eects on taskwork, teamwork, member attitudes
and cognitions, and member well-being.
