A Meta-Analysis of Cohesion and Performance

Effects of Level of Analysis and Task Interdependence

Stanley M. Gully

Dennis J. Devine

David J. Whitney

Michigan State University

This study extends previous work reviewing the cohesion-performance relationship by using meta-analytic techniques to assess the effects of level of analysis and task interdependence on the cohesion-performance relationship. A total of 51 effect sizesfmrom 46 empirical studies were obtainedfor the meta-analytic integration. Results suggest that level of analysis and task interdependence moderate the cohesion-performance relationship. Implications of the findingsforfuture research on group cohesion and performance are discussed
