In order to determine if the performance feedback was effective in generating differences in perceptions of success and failure, subjects were asked to rate how well their group performed on the task, how satisfied they were with the performance of their group, and how well they personally performed on the task. The difference between each subject's rating of personal performance and group performance was calculated for the present data and an analysis of variance was performed on this measure of relative performance. The results demonstrated a consistent effect of group success versus failure on attributions. As compared to subjects in failing groups, subjects in successful groups attributed more responsibility to sell, average group member, and group as a whole, and attributed the cause of the performance more to personal ability and less to internal constraints, distractions in the situation, and task difficulty. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1977 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
