Resumo: Group innovation involves social processes that are facilitated by group trust and affective commitment to the team. The present paper intends to analyze, in a context of teams with some degree of virtuality, the relationship between trust and group innovation, considering the affective commitment with the team as the mediator. To achieve the proposed objective, an empirical study was carried out, with a cross-sectional nature, focusing on 57 work teams from Portuguese organizations pertaining to different sectors of activity. Using surveys as the method in order to collect information, the data was analyzed at the group level, and a simple mediation model was tested. The results revealed a positive and statistically significant relationship between group trust and affective commitment with the team, as well as between affective commitment and group innovation, in the affective trust mediation model. The mediation hypothesis was not supported. These results reinforce the literature that considers the relevance of group trust as a strategy to increase the affective commitment with the team and suggests that this latter may constitute a variable not to be neglected in promoting group innovation.

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar, num contexto de equipas com algum grau de virtualidade, a relação entre a confiança e a inovação grupal, considerando o comprometimento afetivo com a equipa como mediador. Para prossecução do objetivo enunciado, foi realizado um estudo empírico, de natureza transversal, incidindo sobre 57 equipas de trabalho de organizações portuguesas pertencentes a diversos setores de atividade. Recorrendo ao inquérito por questionário como método de recolha de informação, os dados foram analisados ao nível grupal, tendo sido testado um modelo de mediação simples. Os resultados revelaram uma relação positiva e estatisticamente significativa entre a confiança grupal e o comprometimento afetivo com a equipa, bem como entre o comprometimento afetivo e a inovação grupal, no modelo de mediação da confiança afetiva. A hipótese de mediação não foi suportada. Estes resultados reforçam a literatura que alerta para a relevância da confiança grupal como estratégia para aumentar o comprometimento afetivo com a equipa e sugerem que este último pode constituir uma variável a não negligenciar na promoção da inovação grupal.Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra2019-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_62-1_4https://doi.org/10.14195/1647-8606_62-1_4Psychologica; Vol. 62 No. 1 (2019); 79-97Psychologica; Vol. 62 N.º 1 (2019); 79-971647-86060871-465710.14195/1647-8606_62-1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_62-1_4https://impactum-journals.uc.pt/psychologica/article/view/1647-8606_62-1_4/5521Bastos, LilianaLourenço, Paulo RenatoRebelo, TeresaDimas, Isabel Dórdioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-05-31T13:59:42Zoai:impactum-journals.uc.pt:article/7007Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:58:18.528279Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
