Abstract
“An experiment was conducted to test the hypothesis that in unstructured situations, behavior oriented toward individual prominence in the group is negatively correlated with group performance and positively correlated with member satisfaction . . ‥ Twenty-two four-person groups were observed . . ‥ Groups were required to solve five problems . . ‥ After completion of the problem, Ss rated their satisfaction with the group, the degree to which group members cooperated, and group performance . . ‥ It was concluded that in the undifferentiated situation behavior oriented toward individual prominence interferences with effective group action.” (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
