摘要
This article reports findings from a longitudinal field study on multilevel processes in teams and examines the role of individual team-goal specification and team-goal clarity with regard to individual performance. It is hypothesized that individual team-goal specification predicts change in individual performance over time, particularly when team-goal clarity is low. Multisource data gathered in 31 project teams supported the hypotheses. Overall, the findings suggest that team members can improve their individual performance when engaging in teamwork processes that are relevant for the team as a whole.
