Status Conflict in Groups

TLDR
It is determined that status conflict exerts a significant negative main effect, moderates the effects of task conflict on group performance, and hurts performance by undermining information sharing more than other types of conflict do.
Abstract
We introduce status conflicts—defined as disputes over people's relative status (i.e., respect) positions in their group's social hierarchy—as a key group process that affects task group performance. Using mixed research methods, we qualitatively identify the characteristics of status conflicts, validate a four-item survey scale that distinctly measures status conflict, and investigate the relationship between status conflict and group performance. We determine that status conflict exerts a significant negative main effect, moderates the effects of task conflict on group performance, and hurts performance by undermining information sharing more than other types of conflict do.

The paradox of intragroup conflict: A meta-analysis.

TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of 116 empirical studies of intragroup conflict (n = 8,880 groups) and its relationship with group outcomes, finding that task conflict and group performance were more positively related among studies where the association between task and relationship conflict was relatively weak, in studies conducted among top management teams rather than non-top management teams.

The Risks and Rewards of Speaking Up: Managerial Responses to Employee Voice

TL;DR: This paper examined whether managerial responses to employees speaking up depend on the type of voice exhibited and whether employees speak up in challenging or supportive ways in one field or another. And they concluded that managers' responses depend on whether employees are challenged or supportive.

Reversing the Extraverted Leadership Advantage: The Role of Employee Proactivity

TL;DR: The authors found that although extraversion predicts leadership emergence and effectiveness, but do groups perform more effectively under extraverted leadership? Drawing on dominance complementarity theory, they propose that although proactive leadership enhances group performance when employees are passive, this effect reverses when employees were proactive, because extraverted leaders are less receptive to proactivity.

TL;DR: In this article, multiple regression is used to test and interpret multiple regression interactions in the context of multiple-agent networks. But it is not suitable for single-agent systems, as discussed in this paper.

Social Capital: Its Origins and Applications in Modern Sociology

TL;DR: Social capital has a definite place in sociological theory as mentioned in this paper, and its role in social control, in family support, and in benefits mediated by extra-familial networks, but excessive extensions of the concept may lead to excessive emphasis on positive consequences of sociability.
