Task Versus Relationship Conflict, team performance , and team Member Satisfaction: A Meta- analysis Carsten K. W. De Dreu Laurie R. Weingart University of Amsterdam Carnegie Mellon University This study provides a meta- analysis of research on the associations between Relationship conflict, task conflict, team performance , and team member satisfaction. Consistent with past theorizing, results revealed strong and negative correlations between Relationship conflict, team performance , and team member satisfaction. In contrast to what has been suggested in both academic research and introductory textbooks, however, results also revealed strong and negative (instead of the predicted positive) corre- lations between task conflict, team performance , and team member satisfaction.

current analysis reported on both task conflict and relationship conflict, and many included a measure of team performance as well as a measure of team member satisfaction. All studies in the meta-analysis measured rather than manipulated task versus rela-tionship conflict, an issue we return to in the Discussion section. Method Literature Search
