The Kirton Adaption Innovation Inventory and Group Problem Solving Success Rates.
Hammerschmidt, Peter K.
Journal of Creative Behavior, v30 n1 p61-74 1996
Results from a 4-year study tracking creative problem-solving success rates among 952 managers in 8-person teams (4 planners and 4 implementers) are reported. Coordination of subteam role (task) with Kirton Adaption Innovation Inventory (KAI) type significantly increased group success rates, while placing KAI types outside their preferred roles resulted in significantly lower group success.
