The team player inventory: Reliability and validity of a measure of predisposition toward organizational team-working environments
TLDR
The 10-item Team Player Inventory as mentioned in this paper assesses the degree to which individuals are positively predisposed toward organizational team-working environments, and it is used to assess the factor structure and internal consistency of the scale.Abstract:
The 10-item Team Player Inventory assesses the degree to which individuals are positively predisposed toward organizational team-working environments. Data from 3 samples were used to assess the factor structure and internal consistency of the scale. Evidence indicates that the scale measures a single construct. Convergent, discriminant, and criterion-related validity assessments suggest that the Team Player Inventory captures a construct that is both unique and predictive of relevant team behavior This inventory will assist researchers in testing theoretical models of team effectiveness and practitioners in determining the degree to which specific individuals will react positively to team environments.read more
