随着虚拟团队在组织中越来越普遍,对虚拟团队的支持将成为群体支持系统(GSS)学者的一个重要研究课题。本研究探讨如何GSS可用于支持虚拟团队建设。结果表明,一个GSS与嵌入式目标设定结构的虚拟团队,以促进更好的团队凝聚力,更好的团队承诺,更好的合作气氛比GSS没有目标设定结构。虚拟团队使用GSS与嵌入式目标设定结构也有更好的感知决策质量和产生更多的决策选择比虚拟团队使用GSS没有目标设定结构。这些研究结果的影响进行了讨论。
As virtual teams become more and more common in organizations, supporting virtual teams will be an important research topic for group support systems (GSS) scholars. This research examines how a GSS may be used to support virtual team-building. The results reveal that a GSS with an embedded goal-setting structure helped virtual teams to foster better team cohesion, better team commitment, and better collaboration climate than a GSS without the goal-setting structure. Virtual teams using a GSS with an embedded goal-setting structure also had better perceived decision quality and generated more decision alternatives than virtual teams using a GSS without the goal-setting structure. Implications of these findings are discussed.
