Predicting Adaptive Performance in Multicultural Teams: A Causal Model
Abstract
The present study examines a causal model of adaptive performance in multicultural team settings. Dispositional traits are posited to influence adaptive performance through the mediating mechanisms of stress appraisals and self-efficacy. Beyond examining the causal paths associated with predictors, the study includes a commensurate focus on adaptability as an outcome and addresses the measurement issues that surround adaptive performance. Results support the posited causal model across divergent measurement methods for adaptive performance. Implications for the selection and training of multicultural teams, and directions for future research are discussed.
