- Abstract
This study examines the relationships between team goal orientation, the team self-regulation tactic of team planning, and team performance of 91 student teams engaged in complex decision- making tasks requiring analytical skills. In contrast to previous findings involving individuals, the authors' results indicate that team performance-prove goal orientation, but not team learning goal orientation, influenced team performance through its impact on team planning. Implications of these results are discussed in terms of enhancing team performance by emphasizing team planning and team performance-prove goal orientation.
