One such explanation is rooted in the general idea that effects of teamwork processes may depend on the nature of the interactions the teams employ to complete their work (LePine et al., 2000). That is, when the level, mindfulness, or complexity of taskwork is relatively high, team processes should play a more central role in task accomplishment and thereby exhibit stronger relationships with team outcomes. In contrast, when the level, mindfulness, or complexity of taskwork is relatively low, team processes should evidence weaker relationships with outcomes. We suggest there are two team characteristics that impact the nature of interaction among members and thus may serve as moderators of the relationship among teamwork processes and team effectiveness criteria.
