The influence of intra-team conflict on work teams' affective climate: A longitudinal study

2008

We analysed whether relationship conflict mediates the link between task conflict and shared affect at the team level of analysis. Moreover, we tested the hypothesis that the relationship between these two types of intra-team conflict would be moderated by team members' interaction. The sample was composed of 156 bank branches. Data were gathered at two points in time. Two affect dimensions (tension and enthusiasm) were measured. The results obtained supported our hypotheses. Relationship conflict fully mediated the relationship between task conflict and team affect. Team members' interaction about team issues moderated the relationship between task conflict and relationship conflict, so th…

How do different types of intragroup conflict affect group potency in virtual compared with face-to-face teams? A longitudinal study †

2008

The number of organizations using teamwork is increasing. In this context, group potency has emerged as a key construct in group research. Moreover, in the last decades, information and communication technologies (ICT) have allowed organizations to form virtual teams. Consequently, a considerable amount of research has analysed the functioning of virtual teams. We focus on intragroup conflict as a relevant antecedent of potency in computer-mediated communication groups. Specifically, the aim of this research is to examine the role of ICT in the relationship between intragroup conflict and group potency in a longitudinal study. A laboratory experiment was carried out comparing 44 groups work…

The influence of age-based faultlines on team performance: Examining mediational paths

2021

Abstract In a sample of 60 branches of a bank, we examine the influence of age-based faultlines on team performance. Specifically, we propose a model with four mediational paths in the age-based faultline-team performance link. Using a time-lagged design with three data-collection points, we found that task conflict, team reflexivity, and negative team mood mediated the negative relationship between age-based faultline strength and team performance. The results reveal the value of examining different mediational paths to explain the negative impact of teams’ demographic faultlines on team performance, and the need to integrate both task-related and affective aspects of team work in order to…

La Seconda Vita dell'Ambiente Costruito

2021

Il contributo inquadra i saggi, gli studi, le ricerche e progetti pubblicati sul numero 9 di AGATHÓN su ‘La Seconda Vita dell’Ambiente Costruito’, tema di interesse per il mondo accademico, delle professioni e dell’industria. Cambiamenti climatici, eccessivo consumo di suolo e di risorse non rinnovabili, produzione sempre crescente di rifiuti, emergenza pandemica e crisi socio-economica globale sono entrati di fatto nel nostro quotidiano: seppur drammatiche, per certi versi, tali questioni possono essere colte come un’opportunità per ripensare il modo e il mondo in cui viviamo. In questo contesto di ‘rivoluzione’(Floridi, 2020) e di ‘policrisi’ (Losasso, 2020), e con riferimento specifico a…

The contribution frames the essays studies research and projects published in issue 9 of AGATHÓN on ‘The SecondLife of the Built Environment’ an interesting topic for universities businesses and industry. Climate changes excessive use of soil renewable resources ever-increasing production of waste the current pandemic emergency and the global socio-economic crisis have in fact entered our daily life. Even if these are tragic issues they can be somehow seized as an opportunity to rethink the way we live and our world. In this ‘revolutionary’ (Floridi 2020) and ‘polycrisis’ (Losasso 2020) context specifically referring to the building industry the Academy the Research and Industry worlds are called to give answers – based on sustainability and the principles of the Green Deal but also and mostly of the new Bauhaus – that can encourage reconsiderations and re-orientations of processes and products new projects on places buildings objects and materials able to positively affect the governance of the global change that our planet and humanity need able to give a ‘new life’ to the built and/or transformed environment at any scaleSettore ICAR/12 - Tecnologia Dell'Architettura

Design e narrazioni

2022

Il testo nasce dall’esigenza di mettere a fuoco le implicazioni cognitive, metodologiche e progettuali del concetto di narrazione, sempre più ricorrente nella nostra esperienza quotidiana soprattutto per le molteplici forme di comunicazione e di produzioni culturali che vi si ispirano; si tratta di un concetto che anche nella riflessione teorica e nella progettualità del design sta alimentando dimensioni fortemente innovative ed evolutive nella costruzione, comunicazione di significati, contenuti immateriali, esperienze e valori emozionali che si sovrappongono e s’intrecciano all’espressione tangibile e funzionale degli oggetti, degli artefatti comunicativi, degli spazi. Si propone un perco…

The text arises from the need to focus on the cognitive methodological and design implications of the concept of storytelling increasingly recurrent in our daily experience especially for the many forms of communication and cultural productions that are inspired by itSettore ICAR/13 - Disegno Industrialeit is a concept that also in theoretical reflection and design planning is feeding strongly innovative and evolutionary dimensions in the construction communication of meanings intangible content experiences and emotional values that overlap and intertwine with the tangible and functional expression of objects communicative artifacts spaces.. It proposes a cognitive path tangent to the development of "narratology" and the theories of narrationthus we come across a multiplicity of disciplinary connections affecting sociology psychology anthropology philosophy semiotics and of course history cinema journalism advertising up to corporate communication and political propaganda. It is an articulated panorama that today seems to expand more and more and far from being mainly addressed to theoretical issues increasingly seems to be modeled on application performative and design aspects.

Pensare con gusto

2021

The greatest challenge for a human being lies in being able to understand, and indeed welcome, one’s own limits as an essential ingredient that determines, qualifies, and ultimately enriches the very tendency to overcome them. Any gesture that, in whatever way, aims to elevate us from our finite condition will be all the more successful in its intent the deeper that condition is imprinted in it.

Tiesību normu laika aspekti tiesiskā un demokrātiskā valstī

2015

Promocijas darbā „Tiesību normu laika aspekti tiesiskā un demokrātiskā valstī” ir izpētīts, kuros gadījumos likumdevējs ir tiesīgs pieņemt tiesību normas ar iedarbību uz pagātnē izveidotām tiesiskajām attiecībām. Izveidotu tiesisko attiecību ietekmēšana ir izvērtējama, balstoties uz tiesiskās paļāvības principu. Lai noskaidrotu, vai tiesiskās paļāvības princips ir aizskarts, ir jākonstatē, vai tiesību normām ir atpakaļejošs spēks laikā. Atšķirībā no sodu tiesībām, kur atpakaļejošs spēka identificēšana per se padara tiesību normas par prettiesiskām, citās tiesību nozarēs pēc atpakaļejoša spēka konstatēšanas vēl būtu jāizvērtē, vai sabiedrības interešu aizsardzība nav iespējama ar mazāku ieja…

Relationships between time of day, day of the week, and positive mood: Exploring the role of the mood measure

1995

This study examined the relationship between time of day, day of the week, and two measures of positive affect (PA). According to previous research and the circumplex model of affect, one scale was designed to assess the activation component of PA, and the other one measured the pleasantness aspect. Subjects rated their mood three times a day for 7 consecutive days. Consistent with our hypotheses, PA-Pleasantness showed a peak on the weekend, whereas PA-Activation remained stable throughout the week. Regarding time of day, maximum PA-Activation was reached in the afternoon. In contrast, the Pleasantness component of PA increased from morning to evening. Implications of these results as well…
