| Abstract: | This article employs the social identity perspective to improve the understanding of group affect. Because higher identification is connected with higher attentiveness to group members, it is hypothesized that group identification would increase affective convergence, and that the effects of group affective tone on team effectiveness would be stronger for higher identifying groups. A survey of 71 teams supported the hypotheses. A scenario experiment added to the results by indicating that identification leads group members to affectively converge to their fellow group members and that this affective convergence explains subsequent team-oriented attitudes. |
