At the turn of century, Arrow, McGrath, and Berdahl portrayed teams as complex adaptive systems (CAS). And yet, despite broad agreement that this approach facilitates a better understanding teams, it has only now been timidly incorporated into team research. To help fully incorporate logic CAS in science we review extant research on approached from nonlinear dynamical system theory. Using systematic approach, selected 92 articles published over last 17 years to integrate what know about CAS....
Abstract As a result of the growing interest in studying employee well‐being as complex process that portrays high levels within‐individual variability and evolves over time, this present study considers experience flow workplace from nonlinear dynamical systems approach. Our goal is to offer new ways move beyond linear approaches. With theory backdrop, we conducted longitudinal using sampling method qualitative semi‐structured interviews for data collection; 6981 registers were collected...
This manifesto presents 10 recommendations for a sustainable future the field of Work and Organizational Psychology. The is result an emerging movement around Future WOP (see www.futureofwop.com), which aims to bring together WOP-scholars committed actively contribute building better our field. Our are intended support both individuals collectives become engaged in co-creating with us. Therefore, this open never "finished." It should continuously evolve, based on ongoing debate professional...
Work-related flow is defined as a sudden and enjoyable merging of action awareness that represents peak experience in the daily lives workers. Employees’ perceptions challenge skill their subjective experiences terms enjoyment, interest absorption were measured using sampling method, yielding total 6981 observations from sample 60 employees. Linear nonlinear approaches applied order to model both continuous changes. According R 2 , AICc BIC indexes, dynamical systems (i.e. cusp catastrophe...
Workgroup diversity can be conceptualized as variety, separation, or disparity. Thus, the proper operationalization of depends on how a dimension has been defined. Analytically, minimal must obtained when there are no differences an attribute among members group, however maximal different shape for each conceptualization diversity. Previous work indexes indicated maximum values variety (e.g., Blau's index and Teachman's index), separation standard deviation mean Euclidean distance),...
Mimicry is a central plank of the emotional contagion theory, however it was only tested with facial and postural stimuli.This study explores existence mimicry in voice tovoice communication by analyzing 8747 sequences displays between customers employees callcenter context.We listened live to 967 telephone interactions, registered analyzed them Markov chain.We also explored other propositions theory that were yet be vocal contexts.Results supported significantly present at all levels.Our...
Although dedicated to the study of processes in people and organizations, W&O Psychology has shown little sensitivity fact that happen time evolve over time. This paper describes how field become more aware oftime, after an initial neglect is now engaged developing theories empirically investigating when things they change. We discuss proposals from Molenaar, Van de Ven, Roe, colleagues make our conceptual apparatus better suited temporal dynamics research methods sensitive issues, changing...
Considering teams as complex adaptive systems (CAS) this study deals with changes in team effectiveness over time a specific context: professional basketball. The sample comprised 23 basketball whose outcomes were analysed 12-year period according to two objective measures. results reveal that all the showed chaotic dynamics, one of key characteristics CAS. A relationship was also found between showing low-dimensional dynamics and better outcomes, supporting idea healthy variability...
The main objective of this study is to identify criteria that would allow us determine when a collection people group. A bibliographic search the psychological literature has yielded terms groupness, entitativity, and groupality. These three constructs are then theoretically analyzed compared, found share two aspects: (a) conception groups as continuum varying in their level group development (LGD) (b) most central have been considered define Regarding these criteria, we categorize them...
This study considers the complex dynamics of work motivation. Forty-eight employees completed a work-motivation diary several times per day over period four weeks. The obtained time series were analysed using different methodologies derived from chaos theory (i.e. recurrence plots, Lyapunov exponents, correlation dimension and surrogate data). Results showed chaotic in 75% cases. findings confirm universality behavior within human behavior, challenge some underlying assumptions on which...

The affective events theory proposes that daily elicit reactions on workers that, over time, influence and judgement-driven behaviours. It also suggests this relation is moderated by dispositions appraisals. On the other hand, social interaction model argues impact of emotions how individuals regulate them. This study aimed to: (1) investigate what customer-related affect; (2) test moderating role workers' susceptibility for emotional contagion events-affect; (3) explore whether states...
According to Affective Events Theory, the emotional elicitation process is initiated by appraisal of affective events happening employees. Moreover, theory states that these elicited experiences influence attitude and behaviour in workplace. In present study this theoretical frame applied explain interplay variables influencing state work engagement. We analyse mediating role affect between events’ appraisals daily engagement, using a diary study. One hundred seventeen workers answered...
Nonlinear and dynamic approaches are two main principles of complex systems. The work organizational psychology field has recently applied these concepts to understand human behaviour at work. In this introductory paper, we describe how can be understood from a nonlinear perspective, developing applying the advantages approach continue moving beyond frontiers our knowledge. We focus on theoretical, methodological, epistemological implications in field. Then, present five papers included...
