Being open, feeling safe and getting creative: The role of team mean openness t...
Sacramento, Claudia; Lyubovnikova, Joanne; Martinaityte, Ieva; Gomes, Catarina; Curral, Luis; Juhasz-Wrench, AndreaAlthough the effects of openness to experience (OTE) on individual creativity are well-established, research on how such effects unfold in a team context is scarce. Drawing on theories of group norms and uncertainty reduction, we argue that team mean OTE leads to a climate of team psychological safety which, in turn, facilitates team creativity. We test our hypothesis over three independent studies, the first c...
The Effect of Leadership Style on Firefighters Well-Being during an Emergency
Curral, Luis; Carmona, Laura; Pinheiro, Raquel; Reis, Vitor; Chambel, M.J.Leaders are crucial to ensuring the well-being of their subordinates. This study aims to understand the effects of two leadership styles (empowering vs. directive) on subordinates’ well-being in an emergency situation (i.e., rural fire). A simulation study was conducted with two experimental conditions (empowering vs. directive leadership), and the subordinates’ stress levels were measured before and after the ...

Firefighters’ leadership and well-being in rural fires: study in virtual realit...
Pinheiro, Raquel; Reis, Vitor; Curral, Luis; Chambel, Maria JoséIn this study, we analysed the effects of team leadership style on the well-being of firefighter teams operating under conditions of a simulated rural fire. Twenty teams of firefighters (composed of five elements each) took part in a computer‐based fire‐fighting simulation task and were randomly assigned to one of two conditions (leadership style: directive vs. empowering). Our results showed that directive lea...
The rough journey to success: Examining the nonlinear dynamics of processes and...
Marques-Quinteiro, Pedro; Ramos-Villagrasa, Pedro J.; Navarro, José; Passos, A. M.; Curral, LuisWe build on Nonlinear Dynamic Systems (NDS) theory to examine if team performance change across a complete performance cycle is nonlinear, and if such change is related with team processes change over time. Participants were 214 teams enrolled in one management competition. The hypotheses were tested using nonlinear regressions and catastrophe modeling. The results of the nonlinear regression model support the ...
Trabalho em equipa em Portugal: Uma década de progresso
Santos, Catarina Marques; Passos, Ana Margarida; Graça, Ana Margarida; Curral, Luis; Costa, Patrícia; Abrantes, António; Quinteiro, Pedro MarquesNa última década em Portugal assistimos à explosão do número de estudos acerca dos fatores psicológicos e contextuais que antecedem a eficácia das equipas em ambientes de trabalho complexos e extremos. Esta investigação tem-se centrado em torno dos aspetos comportamentais (e.g. coordenação, liderança), cognitivos (e.g. modelos mentais partilhados, sistemas de memória transitiva) e afetivos (e.g. coesão, team wo...

There Is light and there Is darkness: on the temporal dynamics of cohesion, coo...
Quinteiro, Pedro Marques; Rico, Ramón; Passos, Ana Rita; Curral, LuisThis study examines teams as complex adaptive systems (tCAS) and uses latent growth curve modeling to test team cohesion as an initial condition conducive to team performance over time and the mediational effect of team coordination on this relationship. After analyzing 158 teams enrolled in a business game simulation over five consecutive weeks, we found that change in team coordination was best described by a...
How transactive memory systems and reflexivity relate with innovation in health...
Quinteiro, Pedro Marques; Curral, Luis; Passos, Ana; Lewis, Kyle; Gomes, CatarinaTransactive memory systems promote the effective exchange of diverse information, and may therefore contribute to healthcare teams innovation. Prior research on performance outcomes, however, suggests that transactive memory systems might be most useful for repetitive, rather than novel tasks. We reconcile these conflicting predictions by arguing that the information processing efficiencies of a transactive mem...
