Assembly Based Methods to Support Product Innovation in Design for Additive Manufacturing: An Exploratory Case Study (2015, unknown): “Each of the three groups is composed of six members, in adequacy with Curral et al. [71] and Moreland et al. [72].”
Climate for Creativity: A Quantitative Review (2007, background): “In keeping with the ob- servations of Curral et al. (2001), it was found that climate effects were weaker in the single study examining very large groups of 15 or more (∆ = .14) than in the small (∆ = .53, SE = .14), medium (∆ = .86, SE = .13), and large (∆ = .72, SE = .29) groups.”
The Effects of Leadership Style and Team Process on Performance and Innovation in Functionally Heterogeneous Teams (2006, background): “These superiors can help reduce barriers between diverse professionals in functionally heterogeneous teams by facilitating the open exchange of ideas and analytical perspective across multiple functions (Barrett, 1998; Curral et al., 2001; Lewis et al., 2002).”
Flow experience and team performance: The role of team goal commitment and information exchange (2013, unknown): “Team size (i.e., the total number of members in each team) is considered in this study as a potential control variable because it may have a confounding effect by influencing both team functioning and outcomes (e.g., Curral et al. 2001; LePine et al. 2008).”
Team Goal Commitment and Team Effectiveness: The Role of Task Interdependence and Supportive Behaviors (2005, unknown): “Curral, L. A., Forrester, R. H., Dawson, J. F., & West, M. A. (2001).”
The Absence of Cooperation Is Not Necessarily Defection: Structural and Motivational Constraints of Knowledge Transfer in a Social Dilemma Situation (2009, background): “Curral et al. (2001) and Guzzo et al. (1995) found strong empirical evidence that team size and participation as well as innovation-related group processes are negatively correlated.”
A Meta-Analysis of Shared Leadership: Antecedents, Consequences, and Moderators (2018, background): “According to Curral et al. (2001), as group size increases, the psychological distance between individuals rise.”
