Cohesiveness and Performance on an Additive Task: Evidence for Multidimensionality.
Zaccaro, Stephen J.; Lowe, Charles A.
Journal of Social Psychology, v128 n4 p547-58 Aug 1988
Presents a study designed to contrast the effects of task-based and interpersonal cohesiveness on group performance of students. Concludes that high task cohesion helped group performance, while interpersonal attraction had no apparent effect. Finding that increased interpersonal cohesion improved task commitment, the authors suggest that cohesiveness be conceptualized as a multidimensional variable rather than as a unitary one. (GEA)
