Four Factors Affecting Group Performance In Business Policy Simulations
Abstract
This paper examines the effects of scholastic achievement (GPA), gender, academic major, and personality orientation (marginality) of business policy students on their group performance in a complex management simulation. Results of testing a large sample of student teams indicated that GPA bore no relationship to group performance, but that all-female teams, teams with accounting majors, and non-marginal teams all outperformed their corresponding opposites in the team simulation competition.Downloads
