The Impact of Psychological Ownership and Team Identification on Team Performance in Chinese Industrial Parks

Author (s)

Abstract

This study explores the impact of knowledge-based team heterogeneity on team performance in Chinese industrial parks, with a focus on the mediating role of collective psychological ownership and the moderating influence of team identification. Drawing on social identity theory, psychological ownership theory, and group dynamics theory, this research examines how team diversity—both surface-level and deep-level—affects team dynamics and performance. A multi-method approach was employed, combining a literature review with empirical data gathered through surveys from knowledge-based teams across various industrial parks. The findings reveal that collective psychological ownership significantly mediates the relationship between team heterogeneity and performance, suggesting that diverse teams can perform better when they share a collective sense of ownership. Additionally, team identification was found to enhance this mediation effect, indicating that strong team cohesion helps leverage the benefits of heterogeneity. The study provides important theoretical insights into the dynamics of team ownership and identification, offering practical recommendations for managers in industrial parks seeking to optimize team performance. Future research is encouraged to explore additional variables and contextual factors that may further influence these relationships.

Key words: knowledge-based teams; collective psychological ownership; team heterogeneity; team performance; team identification; Chinese industrial parks.
