【 摘 要 】

I propose that member diversities in function, role, and cognitive style exert complementary positive influence on team effectiveness via Demands-Abilities fit (D-A fit). I apply complex system approach as the predominant theoretical lens to integrate diversity and fit research. In addition, I address the need to consider boundary conditions of team member diversity effects. Specifically, team need for cognition and task routineness are expected to strengthen the positive effects of diversities on team D-A fit. Using data from a total of 44 teams, I found role diversity had unique positive indirect effect on team performance via team D-A fit. In contrast to the expectation, cognitive diversity had negative indirect effect on team performance via team D-A fit. Although there was no significant main effect of functional diversity, it showed positive effect on team D-A fit and team performance when team members enjoy deliberating (high team need for cognition). Moderation effects of team need for cognition and task routineness were generally supported. Functional and cognitive diversities were positively related to team D-A fit when team need for cognition was high. And functional and role diversities had positive effect on team D-A fit when task routineness was high. As opposed to expectation, however, role diversity was negatively related to team D-A fit when team need for cognition was high.
