Abstract

A new model of group development suggests that groups ' attention to time and pacing is an important catalyst of their progress through cre-ative projects. In this laboratory study, groups were videotaped as they produced creative products and then interviewed about replays of se-lected portions of the tapes. Participants ' efforts to pace themselves were explored in depth, with special focus on a key feature of the model, a major transition in groups ' approach toward their work at the midpoint of their allotted time. The appropriateness of laboratory sim-ulation for studying midpoint transitions was also assessed. The labo-ratory results mirrored and extended the field-based model; they showed how groups make deliberate attentional shifts at their temporal midpoints, what differences exist between pacing patterns in the first and second halves of groups ' life spans, and what happens when tran-sitions fail. Implications are drawn for theory, practice, and research. Organizations often rely on small groups when they need an innovation

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
