Resumen de Are we all on the same temporal page? The moderating effects of temporal team cognition on the polychronicity diversity�team performance relationship.

Susan Mohammed, Sucheta Nadkarni

• Integrating research on polychronicity, team diversity, and team cognition, we hypothesized that shared temporal cognition (overlapping knowledge) and temporal transactive memory systems (differentiated knowledge) would moderate the effects of polychronicity diversity on team performance. Results from 71 teams in an Indian organization revealed opposing moderating effects in that shared temporal cognition attenuated, but temporal transactive memory systems amplified, the negative effects of polychronicity diversity on team performance. Shared temporal cognition also exerted a strong, positive effect on team performance. Study results provide support for the continued examination of polychronicity diversity and temporal team cognition. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2014 APA, all rights reserved)
