“…Haythorn (1953) also found that group3 with high dominance leaders performed better; similar results are reported by Ghiselli and Lodall (1958) and Smelser (1961). Although some researchers report a relation between achievement motivation and leadership (Bass, 1960;Weiner & Rubin, 1969), the support for this findinr is more equivocal.…”

“…For example, Smelser (1961) investigated dyads that varied on dominant-submissive traits and found that in cooperative problemsolving settings, the most productive dyads were those with complementary traits (a person scoring high in dominance working with a person low in dominance). Similarly, Ghiselli and Lodahl (1958) found that groups performed better on a cooperative task when the group included one relatively dominant member and two or three average-or low-dominance members.…”

This study assessed the nature of the person-team fit relationships for extraversion on members' attraction toward their teams. Unlike most studies of personality-based fit, which emphasize similarity, we predicted that complementary fit on extraversion (i.e., high individual-low team or low individual-high team levels) would result in greater attraction to the team. Data from two independent samples of intact project teams were analyzed, including 324 MBA students comprising 64 case analysis teams and 217 members of 26 manufacturing teams. Using polynomial regression analysis and three-dimensional surface plots, our results supported the predicted relationship. In addition, the data indicated that individuals who were more attracted to their teams were also better performers, as judged by their peers and supervisors.

“…In the present study, we examined the effect of social feedback based on cross-linking of the motor and sensory systems of two individuals (Knight, 1987;Rosenberg & Hall, 1958;Sauter & K. U. Smith, 1971;Smelser, 1961; K. U. Smith & Arndt, 1969; K. U.…”

The same isochronous tone sequence was presented simultaneously to two mutually isolated subjects. In half the trials, accentuation in this sequence was accomplished by doubling the duration of the first and then of every fourth tone; in the other half, by doubling the frequency of those tones. The subjects' task was to follow the rhythm of the resulting four-tone patterns by finger tapping to tone onsets. There were four auditory feedback (FB) conditions: (1) no FB; (2) FB from the subject's own motor responses; (3) "alien" FB from the motor responses of the other pair member who, in turn, was listening to FB from his/her own tapping; (4) mutually "crossed" FB, where each pair member listened to FB from the tapping of the other. Tap onsets regularly preceded stimulus onsets. The observed order of the amount of this anticipation (from least to greatest) was: (1) own FB, (2) no FB, (3) alien FB, and (4) crossed FB. No mutual dynamic influence between simultaneously performing subjects was detected. Anticipation was more pronounced for sequences that were accentuated by frequency rather than by duration changes. The type of accent also influenced timing of intertap intervals in the rhythmic patterns. For the frequency accent, regular timing was produced, whereas for the durational accent, shortening of the second and lengthening of the fourth (the last) intertap interval were observed. The presence and source of feedback as well as the character of accentuation are therefore relevant factors in the timing of auditorally controlled rhythmic motor behavior.
